Thanks.
So for this modules it will scan lib/ and DWIW/ neither of which
exist. It also scans .
Having never tried to use a directory layout other than ./lib/ I
hadn't
thought about where this came from, and having seen the correct
filename
mentioned in somewhere in Makefile.PL presumed that meant MakeMaker
knew
about it.
It actually predates MM supporting lib/
Many XS extensions have the main pm file in the top directory
So would it make sense for MakeMaker to warn if a file mentioned in
VERSION_FROM (or ABSTRACT_FROM -- any others?) is in a directory that
isn't in PMLIBDIRS?
I actually have a dist which deliberately does just that
