Hi
I have installed the binary version of perl-5.8.7 on z/OS.
Now I would like to separately run the test suite that comes with the
source package of perl and run against the installed version of perl.
Is there a means by which this can be done?

IIRC Ilya Zakharevich posted about doing this a while ago,
though I don't recall how far he got.

It's not easy.  Changing what @INC is set to in t/TestInit.pm
is a start, but many tests also set @INC at the beginning.
