+Remote testing:
+ The runtests.pl script provides some hooks to allow curl to be tested on a
+ machine where perl can not be run. The test framework in this case runs on
+ a workstation where perl is available, while curl itself is run on a remote
+ system using ssh or some other remote execution method. See the comments at
+ the beginning of runtests.pl for details.
