All you have to go on is $Config{make}, which is what they built perl with.
If you're lucky maybe they'll be nice and pass in MAKE=... as a parameter
to Makefile.PL.
Or, and this is why one shouldn't lay in bed for too long in the morning
thinking about a problem, Makefile.PL could make a "trap door" Makefile
which is nothing but a list of all the possible targets and one command.
That command generates the REAL Makefile knowing what make to use from
$(MAKE).
I wish this was thought of five years ago.
