For your issue with "Numbered version directories", I was able to get it to "work" by :

* mkdir My/1.2
* Move Foo.pm to My/1.2/
* Change the internal $VERSION to 1.2
* change the "use" declarations in foo_version_test.pl to: 

use lib 'My/1.2';
use Foo 1.2;

[download]
Notice that the folder name goes into the "use lib", and avoids issues with bareword requirements for the module name.
