   With a todo block, the tests inside are expected to fail. Test::More will
run the tests normally,
   but print out special flags indicating they are "todo". Test::Harness
will interpret failures as being ok.
   Should anything succeed, it will report it as an unexpected success. You
then know the thing
   you had todo is done and can remove the TODO flag.

So the behavior is expected.
