+             modules are always present.  This tries to preempt two

+             to have this new fancy threads implementation but my Perl
+             doesn't seem to have it" (2) someone attempting to install
+             threads using CPAN.pm and CPAN.pm helpfully starting to
+             install perl 5.8.0 (which they might already have installed).
