Subject: MakeMaker does not bootstrap without ExtUtils::Install
MakeMaker bundles its dependencies and is supposed to use them during installation if the installed versions are missing or not installed. Unfortunately, the pm_to_blib target is run with the existing ExtUtils::Install which can cause problems if ExtUtils::Install is missing or broken. Rearchitect the bundling system. * Each bundled distribution is installed into its own directory (ie. bundle/ExtUtils-Install/ExtUtils/Install.pm). * Compare the primary module's version * If bundled is greater, or its not installed, move the entire contents into inc/ * Add -Iinc to init_PERL * Add inc to PMLIBDIRS and PMLIBPARENTDIRS (as it does now)

This has now been patched in the EUMM code repository and will be available in a future stable CPAN release. Many thanks.
