This was a bug in the XS form of version.pm (so using the pure Perl version.pm built into M::B would work fine). I just released 0.74 to CPAN with the following fix: Log: Data::Dumper is sometimes too clever for its (and our) own good. When copying an existing version object, directly set newSViv for qv and/or alpha, instead of using &PL_sv_yes, since the latter has a PV slot which looks shared to D::D's jaundiced eye. Patch to Perl coming shortly... John
