The point is that suppressing the warning would leave people with
silently broken code.  It's telling you that it's treating '0.23_04'
as the number 0.23, which is clearly not what's intended by either
the author or user.

Yes, the point i was making is that it should treat '0.23_04' as 0.2304.

There shouldnt be a warning and perl shouldnt get confused.

IOW, it should special case handling $VERSION. Which as far as I
understand what John has said is basically done.
