So how can we force the VERSION for the non CPAN release?

Does search.cpan.org understand "-TRIAL" now? Last I looked, it was
properly handled (i.e. not indexed) by PAUSE, but would leak
through in
a few other places where it appears that an assumption was being made
without checking the index.
CPAN::DistnameInfo added support for '-TRIAL' in 0.10 back in March of
this year and I'm pretty sure that's what Graham is using for
search.cpan.org.
It's certainly possible that it's leaking through elsewhere. rjbs has
been doing -TRIAL releases of Dist::Zilla and may have a better sense
of where any remaining issues are.
It also looked like '-TRIAL' was intended to be used as a pre-release
without bumping any version numbers, so you could have -TRIAL1,
-TRIAL2, etc all with the version e.g. 5.6.2. Am I understanding
that
right?
I believe that was specific to perl distributions, not CPAN
distributions, but it may work for those as well.
