"perldoc -f require" suggests to not use the "modern" form of perl
version requirement:
Specifying VERSION as a literal of the form v5.6.1 should
generally be avoided, because it leads to misleading error
messages under earlier versions of Perl that do not support
this syntax. The equivalent numeric version should be used
instead.
