These are rarely installed, so are not an appropriate dependency for
something intended for wide distribution.
Are you sure you can't the includes get them from Fcntl.pm or POSIX.pm?
Quite. I need offsets into struct flock, as I am trying to do an F_GETLK.
Otherwise the simplest thing to do is use ExtUtils::CBuilder to do the
compilation in your Makefile.PL rather than try to get MakeMaker do it.
As a kludge-around, I was thinking of using the PL_FILES functionality
to have a template module .PL compile the filter and run it on the
template to generate the module .pm file. I'll see if
ExtUtils::CBuilder suits. Not that such a kludge will correctly track
dependencies.
