Yeah, potentially.  However, we'd also need to update people's CPAN.pm 
module, which we can do just by listing it as a dependency in the 
Makefile.PL - but first we need to actually update CPAN.pm.  As Dave 
mentioned, we should probably wait until the M::B interface stabilizes a 
little more before doing that.
