Subject: | NA reports generated for failing tests where core prereqs are specified |
I've noticed this behaviour in CPANPLUS, where if a module author
specifies a core module, such as Config in their prereqs list and the
subsequent testsuite fails an NA report is generated instead of a FAIL.
This output is from MSWin32, but the problem manifests itself on all
platforms:

The tests for 'threads::shared' failed. Would you like me to proceed
anyway or should we abort?
Proceed anyway? [y/N]:

Many thanks.
