+This distribution is a replacement for the builtin distribution.
+
+This package contains a selection of subroutines that people have
+expressed would be nice to have in the perl core, but the usage would not
+really be high enough to warrant the use of a keyword, and the size so
+small such that being individual extensions would be wasteful.
+
+After unpacking the distribution, to install this module type
+
+ perl Makefile.PL
+ make
+ make test
+ make install
+
+KNOWN BUGS
+
+There is a bug in perl5.6.0 with UV's that are >= 1<<31. This will
+show up as tests 8 and 9 of dualvar.t failing
