The new method creates a new Acme::RemoteINC object. Three paired hash 
entry named arguments are required for new:

host => $hostname

The name of the ftp server.
      
user => $loginname

Login user name.
        
password => $pwd

Login password.
    
  Two paired hash entry named arguments are optional arguments for new:

perl_root => $wdir

Perl module directory name relative to the FTP service root.
Defaults to the default ftp service's base working directory.
Alternative: may be a reference to an array of such module directories.
        
ftp => $ftp
     
When given as an argument, this overrides use of the otherwise required 
arguments. ftp is then expected to be a Net::FTP object which has already 
been logged in.

   NOTE: It is advisable that the call to new be done in a BEGIN block. 
   It is also advisable to load Acme::RemoteINC via require in the BEGIN block.

=head2 B<INC>

    This internal method is used by the use and require directives after 
    the reference to the Acme::RemoteINC object has been placed in @INC.
    For details, see the perlfunc docs for require.

=head1 BUGS

This code is beyond bugs. Here there be monsters. The entire concept of 
loading modules via hooks to Net::FTP may well be fatally flawed. Enjoy :).
