Ooh, I was hoping you'd say that. =)  It probably wouldn't be trivial 
for me, because I'd have to start understanding how it works.

In fact, if you're interested, I'd be happy to hand the CBuilder code 
over to you as official maintainer/owner.  Just let me know.

Yeah, it's only recently that I've understood that doing static builds 
is necessary.

I think that your synopsis a couple weeks ago of the various issues 
related to CBuilder was good.  Some of them (like building executables, 
for example) can easily wait until later versions, though - for now we 
can just focus on doing the stuff that tools like M::B will need to 
build XS modules.
