Heh.

If it were without the perl "tell" bits, it would have been "clever and clean", perhaps like

	arrange the following to read from t/random-stdin file
         - run the test script
         - "read x"
        compare the $x you just read with t/random-stdin file

But I think it is good enough to be stupid and clean.
