Should be green for anyone with a fresh checkout at this point
(various tests were removed, fixed, etc.). The only outstanding issue
is that the .gitattribute fix for perlhist.txt requires a user with an
existing checkout to:

% rm t/library/perlhist.txt
% git checkout t/library/perlhist.txt

This should regen the file with the correct gitattributes.

NotFound++ for reporting this last step; if we want to avoid this, we
can rename the file, so that all users end up with a new copy with the
new attributes.
