Subject: Re: [rt.cpan.org #81094] Inline build fails using INSTALL_BASE
Broken in: 0.50, 0.51

I did a clean Inline-0.51 install into a new location
(which required Test::Warn, Sub::Uplevel to be
installed and Carp to be updated) and the test
still failed.
Then after an install of ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.62
Inline build and installed just fine. It looks like
the problem is a bug in the earlier EU::MM and
setting a higher minimum version for Inline to
build seems reasonable to me.
