Hmm, that's a good question.  For the module _author_, verifying should be
done in the dist dir, because that's what contains _exactly_ what will be
in the final distro.  For the installer, verify should be run in the
base_dir, I guess.  Except, I bet it'll fail because of the presence of
the "Build" script.

Hmm, I wonder how to handle that.  Autrijus?
