Well, something quite *like* it would get the Module::Install case for
this particular usage. That is, *ExtUtils::MakeMaker::WriteMakefile =
sub {...} should suffice to strategically break both EU::MM and M::I.
Module::Install definitely dislikes the do() invocation, but it looks
like a `perl -MExtUtils::FakeMaker Makefile.PL` sort of trick could be
made to create a Build.PL or Build file.
