If you guys are going to keep doing this sort of thing (duplicating CPAN 
modules to work around the lack of support for specific versions in the 
CPAN shell) you should really consider talking to p5p about changing the 
tools to support the way you want to work.  The need to use specific 
versions of CPAN modules will always be there, so you either need your 
own installation mechanism that can handle specific versions (that's 
what I do) or changes in the CPAN shell and CPAN bundles to handle it. 
There's nothing wrong with forking a module, but installing specific 
versions can be solved in better ways.
