Too many of these more-than-one-liners scattered through out MakeMaker
for that to be pratical. However, that does give me an idea...
Put all that -e code into a MakeMaker method and then just:
perl "-MExtUtils::MakeMaker" -e "MM->whatever"
ta da! This also neatly solves the "which quotes should I use with
-e" problem which seems to be the reason for the existence of large
swatches of MM_VMS and MM_Win32.
