+When you install an add-on extension, it gets installed into $sitelib (or
+$sitearch if it is architecture-specific). This directory deliberately
+does NOT include the sub-version number (01) so that both 5.005 and
+5.005_01 can use the extension. Only when a perl version changes to
+break backwards compatibility will the default suggestions for the
+$sitearch and $sitelib version numbers be increased.
+
+However, if you do run into problems, and you want to continue to use the
+old version of perl along with your extension, move those extension files
+to the appropriate version directory, such as $privlib (or $archlib).
+(The extension's .packlist file lists the files installed with that
+extension. For the Tk extension, for example, the list of files installed
+is in $sitearch/auto/Tk/.packlist.) Then use your newer version of perl
+to rebuild and re-install the extension into $sitelib. This way, Perl
+5.005 will find your files in the 5.005 directory, and newer versions
+of perl will find your newer extension in the $sitelib directory.
+(This is also why perl searches the site-specific libraries last.)
+
+Alternatively, if you are willing to reinstall all your extensions
+every time you upgrade perl, then you can include the subversion
+number in $sitearch and $sitelib when you run Configure.
