The examples themselves trigger the module's own ridiculous failure conditions. I have a hard time believing these aren't joke modules.

The interesting conversation here is about CPAN moderation and where people stand on it.
I know it tends to be extremely liberal, but when it comes to harmful modules (if someone comes from another language, doesn't read the source, and starts using them), what's the stance?
