30932 was some MakeMaker patch that happened to be in a discussion about
adding CPANPLUS. And CPAN.pm is at 1.9205.

What's the general procedure for correcting, rather than adding to, perl589delta?

If you don't have commit access, exactly what you've done; I've just applied
your changes. If you do have commit access, the usual procedure for any
change is to:

* Make a branch (if there isn't one already)
* Apply changes to the branch
* Send a note to the list when done.

That means that I get a chance to review everything going into the master
branch, and also means that merge conflicts also remain my problem[1].

Patches as attachments are slightly preferred over those inline, because
inline ones sometimes have a habit of word-wrapping when they're not
supposed to.

Cheerio,

Paul

[1] I'd much rather the smart reviewers be reviewing more Changes entries
than trying to figure out how to apply their branch back after conflicts.
