This seems to be a combination of a bug in Module::Build and a configuration
issue on your site. The bug in Module::Build is that it turns install_base
into an array when you supply it twice. The configuration issue is that
you're doing exactly that (you're also giving it a lot more arguments that
are superfluous for that matter). I suspect this has something to do with
Makefile.PL compatibility, since you appear to be using that too.
