------- Comment #2 from Torsten Schoenfeld  2009-03-08 19:07 UTC -------
The message is just a warning, and the affected code is only relevant when
creating the tarball distribution.  So it's safe to ignore.

Also: a module's $VERSION really ought to be a proper floating point number. 
Anything else is just broken.

And: we'll probably soon alter the affected part of the code to just always use
META_MERGE, voiding the need for a version check.

Consequently, I don't think we will fix this.  But thanks for the report and
the patch, anyway!
