Mostly what will work better are the various systems that do
metadata-based analysis of CPAN as a whole (both existing and more to come)

Ack, I thinking backwards here. Sorry, too long with MI. Of course
VERSION_FROM is the version dependency, and not the Perl version dependency.
In that case, what it's missing use just a use 5.006; or require 5.006;
as nothing in the module other than the Changes file states that the
the 5.006 dependency actually exists.
