Two separate probs - the first was that h2xs placed my module under the 'lib' directory - it appeared that the Makefile wanted in the root of the build dir. (Not sure if there is a flag to switch off that behavior.) The second was using $VERSION in the Inline call, instead of the hardcoded string. I guess Inline::MakeMaker doesn't parse that out, which makes sense in retrospect. Onward to CPAN! Thanks Rob. -- Mahlon E. Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.martini.nu/
