I've been wondering whether something was up in this area. The "copy EUMM" you are referring to was probably this: http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commitdiff/b6d6132c1554383190492215dd1da143d1d564ef which was just a few days before your latest update of ExtUtils::Install. You may or may not have noticed that Tru64 is having trouble with the EU::Install tests: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.daily-build.reports/2009/07/msg71551.html and on VMS I occasionally (but not consistently) get lib/ExtUtils/t/Installapi2....................................FAILED at test 15 lib/ExtUtils/t/Install........................................FAILED at test 15 which I originally thought was your recent update of EU::Install but am now more suspicious of the the test infrastructure shared with EUMM.
