Andy,
(How do you get email from the mailing list so fast, I checked the archives
and see that you've already gotten the email and replied, I haven't even
gotten the reply)
Anyway, (not doubting, combatting). But will you explain why:
>> 2) after install with my new Perl be able to find the existing pure

That would be "bad"? If I'm using the same Perl version 5.8.4 on both
installs. Why would re-using pure perl modules be bad? The INSTALL makes it
seem acceptable and preferable.
Thanks
Jay
