Subject: Prevent from installing on newer perls
Installing this distribution on perls > 5.005 causes the original warnings.pm to be shadowed. This is not a good thing, especially for smokers which are installing everything by default. Probably the best is to exit in Makefile.PL if the perl is too new e.g. (untested): if ($] >= 5.006) { warn "This distribution is only for perl 5.005 and older.\n"; exit 0; } Regards, Slaven
