Subject: problem with non-decimal version number
I'm trying to depend on your module, but it's really difficult when module::install / extutils::makemaker complains about your version number:

$ cat Makefile.PL
use inc::Module::Install;
requires q(IO::Prompt) => "0.99"
WriteAll;

$ perl Makefile.PL
*** Module::AutoInstall version 1.03
*** Checking for Perl dependencies...
[Core Features]
- IO::Prompt      ...missing. (would need 0.99)

==> Auto-install the 1 mandatory module(s) from CPAN? [y]

Could you change version format to a decimal, like "0.99004"?
