Okay, so I can just take the V0.06 IO::Poll from Perl 5.8.0 and use it in my Perl 5.6.1 installation, right? And I don't think I need to compile anything, since I don't need to replace the whole IO:: hierarchy, just this one module, and it's Pure Perl.

So where is the best place to put it, to be sure that it will be found before the V0.05 version in the regular lib location? We have our own library directory that we put in front of @INC, but it seems a bit odd to me to put a core module in our own directory. But on the other hand, it is a non-standard version for 5.6.1, so maybe it is appropriate?

Thoughts, comments?
