What about adding NO_BROKEN_INSTALLER as a Kwalitee point for CPANTS?
Maybe tongue-in-cheek, but it's actually a good idea.
Module::Install pre-0.61 is certainly "broken".
What does Module::Build count as? ;)

I agree, this is a really good idea. I would call it
"UP_TO_DATE_INSTALLER". For the present, it could simply test for
old Module::Install. In the future, it could be expanded to look for
compatibility problems in Build.PL or Makefile.PL (e.g. a Makefile.PL
using out-of-date Module::Build::Compat boilerplate).
If the CPANTS "game" gets any M::I-using authors to upgrade, then it
has served its purpose.
