Well then, how do you name it?  For example, Text::CSV.  There's a
pure perl implementation and an XS implementation.  If they're both in
the same tarball, it should probably be Text::CVS::Perl and
Text::CVS::XS with Text::CSV acting as a little wrapper to choose
which one.  Simple enough.

But what if the XS implementation is seperate from the pure Perl one?
How do you name it?
