I was hoping Brett would say something :)
I actually worked through a lot of build issues with Brett. He has a
large hierarchical build tree. The really great thing is that he can now
intersperse XS based directories with Inline-based ones and it all works
exactly as you would expect. The resulting blib/ is exactly the same as
you would get with XS.
