Christian,
I'm sorry if you disagree with the standards and models that I use. I
develop for the community, not to the whims of single users. Also, I
think you may be confused about the wide usage and standardization of
Module::Build. I can provide links and articles as well as other
popular modules that use Module::Build for the installation
mechanics, if you wish. If you will note that nearly every cpan
system recognizes Module::Build as a legitimate and valid build
system and in some cases the default because its pure perl nature.
http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2003/02/12/module1.html
If you still refuse to accept the validity of Module::Build, here is
a list of work around solutions the current situation. I'm sure
you've already encountered these at some point.

Thank you for your time, in light of this I will consider creating a
dummy Makefile.PL and include it in my distributions from this point on.
Cheers,
Nick Gerakines
