Ok, talked to Autrijus.

<Schwern>       But what's that "SKIPPED CHECKING" thing?
<autrijus>      it means that there is a Makefile 
<Schwern>       umm
<autrijus>      which could be cracker-generated
<autrijus>      say a cracker get hold of your tarball

Apparently it only shows up if the signature test fails.

Ok, old versions of MakeMaker on Win32 (6.06, Dec 2002, and back) generate
a pmfiles.dat.  The MANIFEST.SKIP back then didn't take that into account.
Autrijus is hacking up Module::Signature to account for that.
