Maybe there's some general UNINST-like mechanism for eliminating

I guess if it comes pre-installed in a new Perl, it'll always be in
/perl/lib/Module, and never install itself into /perl/site/lib/
Module, so the
question is moot, right (he said hopefully)?
Yup, that's right. It would only be in /perl/site/lib if you
upgraded the perl installation from 5.8 to 5.10. A fresh 5.10 will
only have it in /perl/lib.
