That's so, but I was thinking something a bit more manual than using
build_perl.com. Basically take the Magic Config File from some build (or
roll it yourself) and the appropriate symbols and build a new version of perl.

Interactively I'd still do a MMK TEST and MMK INSTALL separately, but
that's just me.

Nope. MMK INSTALL depends on miniperl, but not all of perl or the modules.
