OK so to sum things up:

On our side:
------------

in RC2 we move to:

  $mod_perl::VERSION = 1.099_019;

which will eventually become:

  $mod_perl::VERSION = 2.000_000;

we mangle Makefile.PL to convert x.yyy_zzz into x.y.z and pass it to:

 WriteMakefile(VERSION => "x.y.z").

so the package name is generated as mod_perl-x.y.z.tar.gz

On users side:
--------------

Modules can now check:

- require 2.x

  if ($mod_perl::VERSION >= 2)

- require 2.2.x

  if ($mod_perl::VERSION >= 2.002)

- require 2.2.5

  if ($mod_perl::VERSION >= 2.002_005)

Is everybody happy with this schema (at least give it a try for RC2)?

Thanks again to John Peacock for the help.
