FWIW, it works fine for me on my Mac laptop, using the Perl 5.16.2 that
comes standard with OSX 10.9.5. I did have to install IPC::Run from
CPAN though.

This output seems to be pretty clear proof that you're not using
Apple's Perl. What is it exactly (where did you get it from)?
Also, noticing that what you're using is evidently Perl 5.12, I'm
wondering whether our TAP test scripts require a fairly new Perl version.
I recall some of my Salesforce colleagues griping that the TAP scripts
didn't work with older Perls.
