Along these same lines, is there any chance of automatically adding targets
for mkmf the way Perl's ExtUtils::MakeMaker module does?  It uses
Test::Harness and runs the file "test.pl" and/or looks for test files by
globbing "t/*.t" (i.e. any file in the 't' directory that ends with '.t').

What do you think?
