[Bioperl-l] Collecting genomic DNA sequences using Entrez IDs

My bad.  I always forget about Bio::ASN1::Entrezgene.  We should ask  
Mingyi Liu if he would like to include this parser with BioPerl (since  
it requires it, makes sense to me, and it avoids the circular  
dependency that has plagued these modules).
