VERSION is determined in Makefile.PL since v0.48. Is there anything that demands $VERSION in one of the sources?

CPAN and ExtUtils::Installed have no idea about Makefile.PL which disappears after build. This make module updating and version tracking difficult. Best to put $VERSION = ... in each of your *.pm files. Thanks! -- Love feeling your best ever, all day, every day? Click http://RadicalHealth.com/join for the easy way.
I've put $VERSION back into CheckDigits.pm. I don't know exactly anymore what lead me to remove it from there. Possibly I did not want to change the file every time without any code change. As for $VERSION in each of the *.pm files: why should I want to do this? At the moment there are 44 *.pm files in the distribution but CheckDigits.pm is the only one that should be 'use'd in a program.
