Yes, I like that -- which is why I was asking about the status of the
plugin.  I thought there was a problem from our discussion on IRC:

(01:13:50 PM) freetime: But FastMmap doesn't work?
(01:13:50 PM) jrockway: it works for everything except FastMmap, which is broken
(01:13:53 PM) freetime: ;)
(01:14:03 PM) jrockway: right, so either use Store::FastMmap or Cache from trunk

So, any idea when Cache will get pushed to CPAN to fix whatever the
problem is?

Hum, just spent 45 minutes reading docs and source again.  Still not
the clear.
