I'd do that for all perl stuff - i.e. modify the perl dependency
auto-generation to use that version number, make my CPAN module RPM
generation script use this scheme, and rebuild the Redhat perl RPMs to do it
that way.

Alternatively I might do it on a module by module basis (with a
configuration file to control it, and forcibly reinstalling modules with the
new scheme where necessary after I made a change).

This issue shouldn't arise.

This shouldn't arise for perl stuff, I think.
