apiversion (patchlevel.U):
- This is a number which identifies the lowest version of perl

- This should probably be incremented manually somehow, perhaps
- from patchlevel.h. For now, we'll guess maintenance subversions
- will retain binary compatibility.
+ MakeMaker will install add-on modules in a directory with the
+ PERL_APIVERSION version number. The value is set manually in
