This is an aside, but if anyone ever used the MacOS Classic version of
Module::Build they'd see it had actual menus!  Because there is no command
line there was no way to say "./Build test".  Instead it used the very
simple MacPerl::Pick() and MacPerl::Ask() built-in GUI functions to provide
simple menus and dialogs asking the user what command they would like to run
and if there were any arguments.
