You probably won't have any noticeable functional issues with an older Cwd.
The reason for the requirement is that older Cwds we've seen shipped by
vendors are extremely inefficient on some platforms (shelling out and
running `pwd` when they could/should be using getcwd()), and this makes a
significant difference to DBIC Schema startup times.
