you could pass a [EMAIL PROTECTED] arg to the generate methods that are added
to the
'use lib ...'

i mainly wanted to see the bugreport stuff be re-usable in a module,
rather than having to copy a .pl script around to each project. having
the methods to generate t/{TEST,SMOKE,REPORT} are just a bonus. if a
project needs to customize more, then they just don't use the generation
methods.
