Oh cool. Nice touch!
I have a patch to blead which will even make the $VERSION scalar be a
version object during the tokenization phase, without the need to call
version->new(), but until I can figure out how to do that in the CPAN
compatibility release[1], I am hesitant to add an additional special
case to bleadperl...

to figure out the exact mechanism that will make this work (Perl is too
smart for me and keeps eval'ing the returned object).
