If you are just processing dist to discover information, you can write your own WriteMakefile routine and grab the answers that way. Look inside Test::Prereq, for instance. I don't like having to do it that way, but I haven't come up with something better. I also have this idea of a set of Mock modules that stand in place of things such as MakeMaker and Module::Install. It's something I'll think abuot and work on in Olso in a couple of weeks as I try to finish up my indexer for all of BackPAN.
