Subject: Remove . from @INC in build chain
Likely required for 5.026 compatibility per http://blogs.perl.org/users/todd_rinaldo/2016/11/how-removing-from-inc-is-about-to-break-cpan.html http://blogs.perl.org/users/todd_rinaldo/2016/11/what-happened-to-dot-in-inc.html https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=127810 "We need to fix the CPAN modules themselves. The vast majority of modules can be fixed by putting use lib "."; at the top of Makefile.PL or Build.PL. Others will need to fix additional scripts in their tree to also take this into account. In some cases use blib; might be more appropriate, for instance, in unit tests which invoke child scripts." "If you want to try a Perl with this functionality now, you will need to build Perl with the Configure option: -Ddefault_inc_excludes_dot. This is available in blead and the next development build of perl."

Has not been seen to be a problem with 5.026 ... yet.
