Except that this file appears to apply to runtime-deps-and-
recommends.d/syntax.t . The tests which are failing are in runtime-
deps.d/use.t . Using debian/tests/pkg-perl/use-whitelist isn't sufficient,
and while I could list each module in debian/tests/pkg-perl/use-name that
seems a bit brittle. Perhaps a skiplist should be supported here as well?

(And it seems that d/tests/pkg-perl/syntax-skip doesn't support comments,
whereas the files for use.t do support comments.)

Would you be open to a merge request here?
