Oh, we don't use the patch tracker on sf.net (and there's no patch
attached to that item either). Unfortunately we can't shut off the
portions of sf.net we're not using.
In any case, this has been available in Module::Build since at least
version 0.19, using two different equivalent syntaxes:
perl Build.PL --config foo=bar --config baz=quux
perl Build.PL config=foo=bar config=baz=quux
The first syntax appeared in version 0.19, the second has been around
much longer (I'm not sure exactly how long).
There's no central place in the documentation that explains the syntax
of command line arguments, but I'd welcome a patch that did so in a
coherent way.
