Actually, I'm running into an issue with the numify() support: it's  
misnaming my distributions! I have a module that uses version  
internally:

   our $VERSION = version->new('0.0.1');

However, when I build a distribution with it, the tarball isn't named  
Foo-Bar-0.0.1.tar.gz. It's named Foo-Bar-0.000001.tar.gz!

Is there a way 'round this? Maybe dist_version could store the  
version object instead of the numified representation, so that the  
string format (v0.0.1) can be used where appropriate, and the  
numified representation (0.000001) can be used where appropriate?

Thanks,

David
