Let's start to get specific about some cage-cleaning.  This shell script
dates from 2004:
r5455 | leo | 2004-02-27 07:11:22 -0500 (Fri, 27 Feb 2004) | 2 lines

It aimed to "run parrot tests under run-yamd".  run-yamd turns out to
have been Yet Another Malloc Debugger
(http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~nate/yamd/README.txt).  testyamd as written will
no longer run because it depends on an option no longer provided for
t/harness:

perl t/harness --gc-debug --running-make-test --leak-test $@

Any objection to my deleting it?  Please speak up within 7 days.  Thanks.
