In order to facilitate using PCT::HLLCompiler with test harnesses,
the C method of PCT::HLLCompiler object exits silently
if it detects that it is being run in a sample run from Perl's
Test::Harness. Currently this detection is done by checking the
second command line argument for "@INC"; future releases may
use a different detection mechanism or eliminate it altogether.
