This is the __END__

I'm using a __DATA__ section in a module I'm writing and I'm accessing it
via <DATA>. I get this error message when I run 'make' after doing 'perl
Makefile.PL' (generated by h2xs).

Can't find __END__ in blib/lib/Text/Echelon.pm
make: *** [pm_to_blib] Error 255

Why am I getting this error message? I made it go away by putting
__END__ on the very last line of the module, but why did I have to?
(Alternatively, why doesn't it just DWIM - it works fine otherwise...)

Oh, and I had a great night on Monday! We should do social things more
often...
