I haven't used it either, but I lurk on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list and
Dave Rolsky, who is in the midst of trying to build the "definitive" perl
DateTime suite and is one of the core developers of mason, I believe, not
only uses Module::Build but has been working on improving it, IIRC. I
think he also has/had an article on perl.com about it. So he might be a
good source of opinions about it.
