Because that is how the build system of those packages works. You just write what your module is called and what the source files are and the rest is done automatically. You could probably override the compiler but that should not be necessary as part of the normal operation. (I think this is a bit like MakeMaker. If you build Perl with a non-standard compiler, then all packages using MakeMaker will also attempt to use that compiler by default.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
