Subject: [ANNOUNCE] ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.35
One little niggle on my Win32 build (perl 5.8.8) - 2 of the prereq.t tests
fail ( because '1.030' ne '1.03'):
C:\_32\comp\ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.35>perl -Mstrict -e "print
$strict::VERSION"
1.03
C:\_32\comp\ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.35>perl -Mblib t\prereq.t
ok 1 - setup

I guess this is because version.pm wants to stringify '1.03' as '1.030' -
but, apart from taking a quick look at 'perldoc version', I've done nothing
to verify that "guess" :-)
(Let me know if this warrants the writing of a bug report for EU::MM to
rt.cpan.org - and I'll oblige.)
Cheers,
