Subject: No license
From CPAN FAQ: <cite> CPAN and PAUSE are not responsible for any licenses or lack thereof contained in the contents of the archive. We do recommend that authors license their modules to avoid legal ambiguity and so that people may use the code in good conscience. If you require help with a license, we urge you to consult legal counsel who can give you sound advice. </cite> There is no license for this module so it can't be used without clear permission from author.

Quick analyze of the code suggest that it is heavily based on sample implementation presented in RFC4122 (http://rfc-ref.org/RFC-TEXTS/4122/chapter9.html). At least code for v3 and v5 is almost identical copy of code in the RFC. So actually it violates requirements stated in sample implementation.
