Hmm. I wonder if there's as much of a knowledge gap between porters and CPAN
authors as vice versa. But that's a topic for a separate post.

For the sake of RC2, I can give a patch later that just moves M::B from dev
to non-dev, probably bumping to a minor, non dev version between CPAN
versions of M::B.  That "fixes" this problem and ensures 5.10.1 is not
broken for M::B module authors on release.

Well, I've understood practically nothing in this thread so far
(ExtUtil::*, CPAN*, Module::* etc are a total mystery to me), but...

given that it looks like I'll need an RC2 for the configure stuff anyway,
and if your suggested change is just a version bump with no other
non-cosmetic alterations, then I suppose yes!
