Hi all,

I'm working on a project that has some traditional C apps in a subtree 
with the Perl code and I'm thinking I want Module::Build to do the 
driving rather than make.  What I inherited was a raw Makefile :-/

The C code is not linked into the Perl code (but the perl does shell out 
to it.) [1]

Should I try to use ExtUtils::CBuilder to process that or just throw a 
makefile in the subdirectory and 'chdir("src"); system("make"); 
chdir("..");' it?  At the moment, it looks like EU::CB won't want to 
play nice.  Cross-platform is not a concern.

Examples of this having been done before?

[1] I know, that's sort of silly.  Not sure how long it will stay that 
way.  Would anyone prefer to have the Inline + Module::Build discussion 
instead? :-D  Anybody have a working process_inline_files() example?

Thanks,
Eric
