You realize you've walked into a lion's den and asked whether meat or  
eggplant tastes better, right? =)

One concrete area where M::B has an advantage is its ability to add  
custom installable components to the mix.  That's tough to do in a  
flexible way with MakeMaker.

See the "ADVANCED RECIPES" in http://search.cpan.org/~kwilliams/ 
Module-Build-0.27_09/lib/Module/Build/Cookbook.pm .

I'm unfortunately not very well-versed in Module::Install, so I  
probably can't comment too much about it.
