Which is no surprise; we're moving t/ to a temporary directory and
run `prove t/*' from there to make sure that we're testing the
_installed_ modules and not the ones from the source (lib/) or the
"built" ones (blib/).

Seems like we have a problem here with POD tests :/

(The good thing is that this doesn't affect all packages; in my tests
with a dozen or so I've never seen this.)
