It has nothing to do with compatability, they're simply not the same
module, any more than Foo::Bar is the same module as Data::Doit. Just
because they have similar names, doesn't mean they're even related, let
alone the same thing.
If your module needs Win32::Daemon (not win32::daemon - case matters),
then you need to install Win32::Daemon, not Win32::Daemon::Simple.

I don't know a lot about ppm, but that seems odd. You generall just
provide the name of the module, and let ppm go out to its repositiries
and find it:
ppm install Win32::Daemon
