Possibley oddity in File::Spec

Does this look familiar?

Figured I'd check first before chasing it down...

"make test" issues a zillion warnings, where "prove" does not?

$ make test 2>&1 | tee a;

Yields:

PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /opt/perl5/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e"
"test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t

Running "perl t/01.t", etc, works just fine also: there is something
about the "make test" that isn't being handled properly.

thanx
