Smokes

Abe is working on the subject of the smoke reports. Smokers should
upgrade Test::Smoke once that is done. We'll wait for Abe to give us
instructions. I expect subject lines to change from something like

Subject: Smoke [5.11.0] 2008122519001044509733541761741882676004675445 PASS HP-UX B.11.11/64 (PA-RISC2.0/64/2 cpu)

to

Subject: Smoke [5.11.0] 2008-12-25.12:02:09 FAIL(M) linux 2.6.25.18-0.2-default [SuSE] (x86_64/4 cpu)

I have been working a bit - together with Yves - on the other side, and
log files should have halved in size now that patchlevel related stuff
is `fixed'

In perforce, PERL_PATCHLEVEL was a single numeric value, bit since git,
it was moulded into something very more verbosem causing not only a lot
of ambiguity, but also a lot of warnings in the log files

Worse than that, probably all statements beyond the broken line would
be skipped in most shells

In config.sh, after Configure finished, we fould

PERL_PATCHLEVEL=31253

after the conversion this was changed to

PERL_PATCHLEVEL=blead 2008-12-23.17:12:08 235f84edeedd25ea878a5e9d8ee8490c1af72837 GitLive-blead-68-g235f84e

which broke, because it was not quoted

Now you will see

PERL_PATCHLEVEL='GitLive-blead-69-g0f04e85'


Follow-up plans are to remove a lot from Configure that has nothing to
do in there to a much later point in the build process.

I still have some smoke-report stuff to look into. Any pointers?
