I don't know how M::I implements it, or even if it implements it "correctly", but I meant providing the option of bundling a (sufficiently new) Module::Build with your distribution, to reduce the friction of installing. I believe (but I may be wrong) that the plan with bundling was to use the newer of the bundled and any installed version, to avoid the problem that has happened with M::I whereby a bug fix in M::I means that module authors need to update and re-release each and every distribution bundling the buggy version.
