 According to the TTeesstt::::MMoorree documentation, it is recommended to run
 "use_ok()" inside a "BEGIN" block, so functions are exported at compile-
 time and prototypes are properly honored.

 That is, instead of writing this:

     use_ok( 'Some::Module' );
     use_ok( 'Other::Module' );

 One should write this:

     BEGIN { use_ok( 'Some::Module' ); }
     BEGIN { use_ok( 'Other::Module' ); }

 However, people often either forget to add "BEGIN", or mistakenly group
 "use_ok" with other tests in a single "BEGIN" block, which can create
 subtle differences in execution order.

 With this module, simply change all "use_ok" in test scripts to "use ok",
 and they will be executed at "BEGIN" time.  The explicit space after
 "use" makes it clear that this is a single compile-time action.
