I've done a bit of investigating and here's what I make of this problem:
In your generated Makefile, there is a line like this:
$(PERL) -Mblib -MInline=NOISY,_INSTALL_ -MRabbit -e1 0.14 $(INST_ARCHLIB)
The way I figured Inline works is as such: each time it is 'use'd with
the DATA keyword, it stores an reference to an object describing the
Inline section in question in a list. Later, inside an INIT block, it
loops through the list and "glues" each section.
In the above scenario, it is used twice with DATA: once with Rabbit
and once with Turtle. So when in compares the correct version with
$ARGV[0], it's good for Rabbit but not for Turtle.
Basically I see only one way of fixing this: in _INSTALL_ mode, stop
everything after having processed the first Inline section.
During these tests I also noticed such a message popping up:
One or more DATA sections were not processed by Inline.
This basically happens sometimes because depending when/how Inline is
loaded, the INIT block never gets run so the gathered Inline section
never get processed.
I'm thinking one should expect this to work:
require Turtle ;
Turtle->relative_speed() ;
But it doesn't unless you say "use Turtle"? Is this a known/documented
bug/feature?
