Works perfectly in 0.84 and 0.83
The challenge is 'just' to get cpan.pm to use build....

Doing
perl Makefile.PL
make
and then a 'make -n' after the failure gives me:
...

Too early to specify a build action 'Build'. Do 'Build Build' instead.

It seems that make wants to build Build as the last thing it does. Wierd....
Diff'ing the makefiles from 0.83 and 0.84 (and ignoring diffs due to the
version change and addition of Katmandu etc) gives:

There is a minor change in the Makefile.PL:

The removal of the 'PL_FILES'-line might cause make to try to build
Build from Build.PL.
Hmmm...
Probably Module::Build::Compat v.0.31012 is the cause of the bug?
