Interesting question. It never occurred to me to even ask this question.
I'd always bump the version number, even for a typo fix.

Same version number would indeed make sense from the philosophical point
of view. But it has a price: you would have to invent a filename for the
upload. With any invention you would violate conventions. So what counts
higher? I'd say conventions. It's really great to see that hardly
anybody invents filenames that violate the cpan conventions. Maybe I'm
missing something but I'd say, bump it.
