I have very little experience what what you describe, but I know the M::B API reasonable well. :-) I'd suggest seeing how far the "c_source" parameter gets you. http://search.cpan.org/~dagolden/Module-Build-0.3603/lib/Module/Build/API.pod#c_source Best of luck. When you're done, if you can write up the process into a cookbook entry, I'd love to include it in the official Module::Build documentation. -- David
