I always run `git clean -xdff` before running our Makefile.PL, so I
assure you there is nothing at all in the working directory.  FWIW I
bisected it to ffce4b65b2c49bbb04919766c376625d426542f7.  I tried to
undo the change in maint/Makefile.PL.inc/11_authortests.pl and while
it made things work at first, they broke later.  I'll look more but
this thing is... not something I know much about.  I'll probably try
re-cutting the release tomorrow once we have this fixed.
