Perhaps it's not at the beginning of a line, in which case # grep 'our $VERSION' /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.?/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm should find it.
If that doesn't do it, just look through the file (using 'less' or whatever you prefer) for a line that looks like it's specifying its version. When you find the line, please post it.
