But does EU::MM actually *install* the bundled EU::Install?   Or just uses
it to bootstrap install itself?  Looking at the Makefile.PL, it looks like
the latter.

It doesn't look as if EU::MM declares a dependency on EU::Install at all, so
you could install EU::MM and wind up with an older, still broken
EU::Install.

(That's not the issue with M::B -- or at least not *this* issue under
discussion.  It should probably do the same bundling of EU::Install to make
sure it can get installed correctly, just like EU::MM.  But I'm not tackling
that issue today.)

P.S. Is EU::MM moving to github also?
