I've been reviewing some of my older META.yml files and noticed
that some contain one or both of "installdirs" and "version_from"
entries.  Neither of them are part of the META spec, either 1.3
or blead.  What is the status of these entries? They seem to be
somewhat common (I think MakeMaker generated "version_from",
and many dual-lifed core modules have "installdirs: perl").

Should I just drop both of them, or are there some plans to make
them official/usefull in the future?
