Log Message:
Updating devel/p5-Module-Build from 0.35000 to 0.36010

pkgsrc changes:
  - Adjusting options (upstream update clearifies a lot there)
  - Adjusting mandatory dependencies
  - Remove dependencies included at least in 5.10 perl-core

Upstream changes since 0.35 (skipping detailed list of developer versions):
0.3601 - Mon Dec 21 14:39:33 EST 2009
 Bug fixes:
 - When the currently running Module::Build is not the same as the one
   that created the Build file, there is now a warning rather than a fatal
   error.  This helps installation of dependency chains where a dependency
   might configure_requires a new Module::Build after Build.PL was already
   run for an earlier distribution. [David Golden, on advice of Matt Trout]

 Other:
 - t/bundle_inc.t fails in odd ways.  This test of an experimental feature
   should not prevent users from installing Module::Build, so this test
   now skips unless $ENV{MB_TEST_EXPERIMENTAL} is true

0.36 - Sun Dec 20 15:02:38 EST 2009

No changes from 0.35_15 other than the version number.

Summary of major changes since 0.35:
 Enhancements:
 - Added 'Build installdeps' action to install needed dependencies via
   a user-configurable command line program.  (Defaults to 'cpan'.)
 - Command line options may be set via the PERL_MB_OPT environment
   variable (similar to PERL_MM_OPT in ExtUtils::MakeMaker)
 - Generates MYMETA.yml during Build.PL (new standard protocol for
   communicating configuration results between toolchain components)
 - Reduced amount of console output under normal operation (use --verbose
   to see all output)
 - Added experimental inc/ bundling; see Module::Build::Bundling for
   details.

 New or changed properties:
 - Added 'share_dir' property to provide File::ShareDir support;
   File::ShareDir automatically added to 'requires' if 'share_dir' is set
 - Added 'needs_compiler' property.  Defaults to true if XS or c_source
   exist.  If true, ExtUtils::CBuilder is also added to build_requires.
 - 'C_support' is no longer an optional feature.  Modern ExtUtils::CBuilder
   and ExtUtils::ParseXS added to the 'requires' list.  This ensures that
   upgrading Module::Build will upgrade these critical modules.
 - Clarified that 'apache' in the license attribute indicates the Apache
   License 2.0 and added 'apache_1_1' for the older version of the license
   (RT#50614)

 Deprecations:
 - Module::Build::Compat 'passthrough' style has been deprecated.  Using
   'passthrough' will issue warnings on Makefile.PL generation.  See
   Module::Build::Compat documentation for rationale.

 Internals:
 - Replaced use of YAML.pm with YAML::Tiny; Module::Build::YAML is now
   based on YAML::Tiny as well
 - A new get_metadata() method has been added as a simpler wrapper around
   the old, kludgy prepare_metadata() API.
 - Replaced guts of new_from_context().  Build.PL is now executed in a
   separate process before resume() is called.  (This is generally only of
   interest to Module::Build or toolchain developers) (RT#49350)
 - Add support for 'package NAME VERSION' syntax added in Perl 5.11.1

 Notable bug fixes:
 - The "test" action now dies when using the 'use_tap_harness'
   option and tests fail, matching the behavior under Test::Harness.
   (RT#49080) [initial patch from David Wheeler; revised by David Golden]
 - Updated PPM generation to PPM v4 (RT#49600) [Olivier Mengue]
 - When module_name is not supplied, no packlist was being written; fixed
   by guessing module_name from dist_version_from or the directory name
   (just like ExtUtils::Manifest does without NAME) [David Golden]
 - Failure to detect a compiler will now warn during Build.PL and be a
   fatal error when trying to compile during Build. (RT#48918) [David
   Golden]
 - Auto-detection of abstract and author fixed for mixed-case POD headers
   (RT#51117) [David Wheeler]
 - resume() was not restoring additions to @INC added in Build.PL
   (RT#50145) [David Golden]
 - When tarball paths are less than 100 characters, disables 'prefix'
   mode of Archive::Tar for maximum compatibility (RT#50571) [David Golden]
 - Merging 'requires' and 'build_requires' in Module::Build::Compat could
   lead to duplicate PREREQ_PM entries; now the highest version is used
   for PREREQ_PM. (RT#50948) [David Golden]
 - Module::Build::Compat will now die with an error if advanced,
   non-numeric prerequisites are given, as these are not supported by
   ExtUtils::MakeMaker in PREREQ_PM [David Golden]
