The full test output will be helpful
  cpan> look Module::Build
  $ perl Build.PL
  $ perl Build
  $ perl Build test --test_files t/compat.t --verbose 1

If you can checkout from svn, the repository is at:

  https://svn.perl.org/modules/Module-Build/trunk

I did:
'svn export https://svn.perl.org/modules/Module-Build/trunk mb'
cd mb
perl Build.PL which gives:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] mb]# perl Build.PL

Creating new 'Build' script for 'Module-Build' version '0.2805'
---------- end output ---------

So at this point I went and installed the "Optional prerequisites" via
CPAN, one of which may have installed ExtUtils::CBuilder as it was
already installed and up-to-date when I tried to install it.

I then did:
perl Build.PL which gives:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] mb]# perl Build.PL

Deleting Build
Removed previous script 'Build'

Creating new 'Build' script for 'Module-Build' version '0.2805'
----- end of output

Then:

perl Build which outputs some stuff - No errors.
Then:
perl Build test --test_files t/compat.t --verbose 1

There were no errors reported and at the end:

ok
All tests successful.
Files=1, Tests=60, 296 wallclock secs (144.91 cusr + 151.25 csys = 296.16 CPU)

So now all I need is a 'sudo Build install', right?

Please let me know if I goofed up any of the steps and I'll redo them if needed.
