MakeMaker does not require version.pm, but it will use it if available. No released version of version.pm has the bug above, though some unreleased version might. Are you using a development version of perl or perhaps some horrible hacked Redhat derivative?
PS The MakeMaker bug tracker is not Perlmonks but here:

bitching on Perlmonks will not get things fixed. | [reply] |
It was activeperl 5.8.7 with version 0.6701
