We have removed the CVS directories in 1.01. That was a slip, normally
we do not include those in the distributions.
The "warning" messages displayed after installation are due to a fairly
large number of user questions about the installation proceess - we
have quite a few users who are neither system administrators nor
regular perl users (yet?) and there seemed to be a lot of confusion
about how to do a local install. Those questions have abated somewhat
since including those warnings, so I guess for now I'd like to keep
them around.
