Installing perl-Getopt-Long-2.24-10 from the developer module archive
results in a conflict between the Getopt::Long support built into perl 5.6.0.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
# rpm -Uvh disc1/RedHat/RPMS/perl-5.6.0-12.<arch>.rpm
# rpm -Uvh DMA/CPAN/RPMS/perl-Getopt-Long-2.24-10.<arch>.rpm

Actual Results:  Every file in perl-Getopt-Long conflicts with existing
files from perl-5.6.0-12.

Expected Results:  Could be a few ways to cleanly solve this:

- install Getopt::Long in site_perl; I'm not sure what would happen
  if /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0 and /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0 both
  contain the same modules; I'd expect the main distribution to win,
  but I haven't tested it.

- split the core modules that ship with perl into sub-packages when
  possible (ie. in this case, split perl-Getopt-Long off into another
  package). This could actually result in a lot more flexibility, but
  it'll introduce a whole new series of dependancies that noone is
  currently looking for; probably not a good idea until 8.0. ;-)

Easy workaround; just --force it into place. Not so cool at upgrade time,
though.
