Ahh, good point! That leaves targeting the regex to exclude the fake $VERSION assignment _or_ adding a real $VERSION assignment to M::B::Base upstream of the other usage.
I sort of feel like I should slap the value of $Module::Build::VERSION into every .pm file that's part of the distribution. And do this for all my other distributions too. And create an option in M::B so it does this automatically when running the 'dist' action.
I think this is likely the best route in the long term, since M::B is going to have to play nice with version objects if it is going to go into the core for 5.10.0...
That's certainly true. But it also has to play nice with non-version.pm environments since it's backward-compatible to 5.005.
