It does, but I was considering cases like:

    PATH=/a/limited/test/environment /usr/bin/prove ...

But actually getting rid of the smoker Perl dependency would be easy,
it's just running each test, saving the output to a file and tar-ing
it all up. It'd be very easy to provide a shellscript that did that.
