Works for me.

With a standard build of Perl? Or your own build that you've enabled -DPERL_EXTERNAL_GLOB on?

Cos I ain't imagining it: 

c:\Perl\packages\Test-Simple-0.84>nmake test

Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 7.00.9466

        C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harn
+ess(0, 'blib\lib', 'blib\arch')" t/*.t t/*/*.t
t/*......t/*.t does not exist
t/*/*....t/*/*.t does not exist
FAILED--2 test scripts could be run, alas--no output ever seen
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe' : return code '0x2'
Stop.

c:\Perl\packages\Test-Simple-0.84>perl -v

This is perl, v5.8.6 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
(with 3 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)
