It can display *any* 50 revisions; for example,

http://public.activestate.com/cgi-bin/perlbrowse/c/1

shows you changes 9951 - 1. Admittedly it could do with prev/next
links though.

Does this mean that 0.90 isn't suitable for 5.10.1 and that I need to
wait for a 0.91 or whatever?

Well, not really. The ideal "CPAN" goals for a maint release are
1) include distributions that actually match something on CPAN
2) ship things that we think pass tests

So unless some other problem comes up, then 0.91 should match both those
goals and everyone's happy.
