Hi Doug,

I'm not that familiar with subtleties of EU::MM so I can't help
you there.  I would vote against any non-trivial fixes right now:

(1) PDL-2.4.4 is in "pre-release" this week, debugging this
      fully would slow down the formal release

(2) it appears to work correctly---just v-e-r-y   s-l-o-w-l-y

(3) Module::Build work might be a better time investment

Just my 3-cents,
Chris
