I don't know how much this counts, but after using an updated
p5-Convert-ASN1 (0.14), I built p5-perl-ldap [1], and then did a make
test in the source directory:

$ make test
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/pkg/bin/perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib -I/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i386-netbsd -I/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1 -e 'use Test::Harness qw(&runtests $verbose); $verbose=0; runtests @ARGV;' t/*.t
t/00ldif-entry......ok                                                       
t/01canon_dn........ok                                                       
t/02filter..........ok                                                       
t/50populate........skipped test on this platform
t/51search..........skipped test on this platform
t/52modify..........skipped test on this platform
t/53schema..........ok                                                       
All tests successful, 3 tests skipped.
Files=7, Tests=194,  3 wallclock secs ( 1.96 cusr +  0.22 csys =  2.18 CPU)

I compared that result to the test results obtained when doing a make
test for a p5-perl-ldap built w/ p5-Convert-ASN1 0.07:

$ make test
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/pkg/bin/perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib -I/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i386-netbsd -I/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.6.1 -e 'use Test::Harness qw(&runtests $verbose); $verbose=0; runtests @ARGV;' t/*.t
t/00ldif-entry......ok                                                       
t/01canon_dn........ok                                                       
t/02filter..........ok                                                       
t/50populate........skipped test on this platform
t/51search..........skipped test on this platform
t/52modify..........skipped test on this platform
t/53schema..........ok                                                       
All tests successful, 3 tests skipped.
Files=7, Tests=194,  4 wallclock secs ( 1.96 cusr +  0.16 csys =  2.12 CPU)

The results look pretty similar to me...though I wonder about the
meaningfulness about these tests.
