| Subject: | the install action defined in modulebuildrc is too specific. |
Module::Build's modulebuildrc file uses the given action to define the scope of a
setting. Setting the install_base parameter for the install action prevents the use
of the command-line option during the initial Build.
It is probably a better idea to use the psuedo-action Build_PL instead.

Patch attached changes the modulebuildrc template.
Note, at the moment this does not yet work as M::B appears to have a bug where it
will ignore parameters specified from the command-line in preference to those
provided through the rc file.
