Not sure how well/poor those modules are supported, but they seemed to be in every perl build I tested this on. (freebsd, linux and aix.. each on a different perl version) The main issue with adding the other module is ease of distribution to numerous systems without installing a bunch of stuff. The main kicker is that File::Tail requires Time::HiRes which needs to be compiled. Can't just do a simple use lib '/foo'; and include the module as part of my code..

ack.. gotta get some sleep.
