Yup, this works.

While debugging this it was hard to find out which version of bioperl
was installed on which machine (some have pre-0.7, some 0.7, some
bioperl-live). The only indication I can find is $VERSION in
Bio::Root::RootI. I could envision a ->version method (generated at 
'make install' time) which would print out info comparable to 'perl -v'

Kris,
