Subject: Undeclared dependency on Encode
One of my smokes just sent off two test reports on Test-Harness-3.04. The first had no Encode module and failed the unicode test. The second was made after Encode was installed and the unicode test succeeded. So either the unicode test must be made a skip when no Encode is installed or the dependency on Encode must be declared somewhere. Maybe there is also the possibility to make Test-Harness encoding-independent?

Thanks Andreas (again ;). I've made unicode.t skip if Encode is unavailable. T::H itself already does the right thing - but the test was boneheaded.
