Based on a discussion started on p5p, I have revised the version

always return the initializer string as the stringified version

already doing for Module::Build::Version). Thus what you put in is
what you get
out; the sole exception is that the use of qv(1.2) *NOTE* one
decimal place and
no leading 'v' *NOTE* will stringify as "v1.2" so we can
successfully roundtrip
that value.
Attached, please find the patch to bring Module::Build into
compliance. I also
included a $VERSION scalar in M::B::Version, since that was missing
(and already
patched in bleadperl). I chose to keep the same $VERSION as the
underlying
version.pm release. I had to tweak a couple of tests that expected
a leading
'v' (which the old code would prepend).
Thanks, applied.
