Actually I wanted to bring a couple of things up with you guys but
havent gotten around to it yet.

When i tried

  build dist

the resulting tar.gz contained no paths, all files were in a single
flat directory. When i did it with EU::MM the proper tree was created.
But im currently using an older beta release of MB so its quite
possible this is a bug that has been fixed.

So all I did was a

  nmake dist

So regarding the executable bits being set, my assumption is that
tar/gzip when run from the cmd.exe shell gets permissions wrong?

Cheers,
Yves
