From the documentation of CGI::Minimal: "See 'CGI::Cookie' for cookie
generation". Which sounds like a lot of fun, except that CGI::Cookie does:
use CGI;
Which probably makes use CGI::Minimal pointless. Or am I wrong?
How to use Cookies (reading/setting) with CGI::Minimal? I couldn't find a
CGI::Minimal::Cookie module :-( (There is a "thin" module, but a peek at
the code made me shudder...)

Which version? I have 1.26 here, and it doesn't use CGI. It does use
CGI::Util, which contains a group of routines for doing URI-escaping and
such; maybe older versions just used CGI instead, and the code's been
refactored?

I see it there, in the next line after the use CGI::Util. Maybe you
deleted use CGI in your local copy? After a quick look through the code, I
expect it would work to omit that line.
http://search.cpan.org/src/LDS/CGI.pm-3.16/CGI/Cookie.pm
$CGI::Cookie::VERSION='1.26';
use CGI::Util qw(rearrange unescape escape);
use CGI;
use overload '""' => \&as_string,
'cmp' => \&compare,
'fallback'=>1;

Wouldn't that need a BEGIN {} tweak since
'use CGI::Cookie' loads earlier ... ?

Yes, of course. My mistake... :) To still achieve the 'local', it would
need to be
BEGIN {
local $INC{'CGI.pm'} = $0;
require CGI::Cookie;
CGI::Cookie->import(...);
}
