  7 package IO::Socket;

  9 require 5.006;

 11 use IO::Handle;
 12 use Socket 1.3;
 13 use Carp;
 14 use strict;
 15 our(@ISA, $VERSION, @EXPORT_OK);
 16 use Exporter;
 17 use Errno;

And then in Socket.... 

  1 package Socket;
  2 
  3 our($VERSION, @ISA, @EXPORT, @EXPORT_OK, %EXPORT_TAGS);
  4 $VERSION = "1.82";

[download]

So package and version are defined.....
