Whoops.
I made a small mistake in the tests in 6.18. If you don't have
$Config{usevendorprefix} set a few of the INST_PREFIX.t tests would fail.
This was just a test bug, not a real bug.
While I was at it, I improved the INSTALLSITEMAN*DIR fallback so that
"perl Makefile.PL INSTALLMAN3DIR=/foo/man/man3" works like it used to
with older MakeMakers.

- Removed 00setup_dummy.t and zz_cleanup_dummy.t. Tests now setup and
teardown the dummy modules as needed.
- Little test glitch on systems without $Config{usevendorprefix} set
- INSTALL(SITE|VENDOR)MAN*DIR now fall back to $(INSTALLMAN*DIR)
instead of copying its value. This lets "perl Makefile.PL
INSTALLMAN1DIR=/some/man/man1" work like expected.

- parse_version() was blowing over $_ (Ilya Zakharevich)
- 5.6.2 has the same Cygwin shared lib name fix as 5.7.0. (Gerrit Haase)
* When $Config{install(site|vendor)man*dir} aren't set it will now
fall back to $Config{installman*dir}. Similar for
$Config{install(site|vendor)bin}. This preserves behavior for older
Perls.
* Eliminated the dependency on perl.h for pure-perl builds.
* Eliminated .exists files. Added blibdirs target using MKPATH instead.
- Removed now unused dir_target() method.
- Added a little documentation to instmodsh.
* Made sure PREFIX always has something in it. Module authors like to use
it when extending MakeMaker. Currently using one of
PERL/SITE/VENDORPREFIX based on the value of INSTALLDIRS.
* Added SIGN to generate module signatures with cpansign (Autrijus Tang)
- Slight tweaks to MAKEFILE_OLD and MAKE_APERL_FILE restoring a mistake
made around 6.06 to fix static builds on OS/2
- Added ExtUtils::Command::dos2unix()
* manicopy() would make the copied files read-only if 'cp' was used.
* Fixed prereq check for modules which are also keywords like if.pm and
open.pm (Autrijus Tang)
- Made ExtUtils::Command mv and cp return whether or not they succeeded.
* metafile_addtomanifest now mentions what its doing.
* metafile will not die if it can't write to META.yml, just emit a
warning. This lets 'make dist' continue with a read-only META.yml
- Small fix to identify UWIN on NT (Randy Sims)
* metafile will not touch the META.yml if it does not need to be changed
(Thanks to Tim Bunce for this idea)
* Fixed 'make uninstall' which looks like its been broken since last
November and nobody noticed.
- Fixing minor bug in VMS prefixification logic when PREFIX was not set
by the user.
- Fixing potential bug in prefixification for relative directories
* Documented UNINST=1

I liked the Weird Al version better.
