Module-Build 0.18

on Perl CPAN

We now rewrite the shebang lines of scripts ourselves, rather than
relying on MakeMaker routines to do it. MakeMaker changed the way
this happened (not the result, but where the code lived) a few
times. [Suggested by Richard Clamp]

The scripts() method has changed to script_files(), and likewise
the 'scripts' parameter has changed to 'script_files'. The old
names can still be used for backward compatibility.

Support for the 'scripts' parameter (which is now 'script_files')
was broken in 0.17, now it's fixed. [Richard Clamp]

We now recommend ExtUtils::ParseXS 2.02, which will fail to load
with perl 5.005 or earlier (which is proper, because it doesn't
work with those versions). When it fails to load, we still fall
back to using the xsubpp script for XS parsing. [spotted by Dave
Rolsky, fix suggested by Richard Clamp]

Now works on VMS - the Build script's shebang-line-equivalent
wasn't being formed correctly there - though just about everything
else worked fine. [Tested & patched by Michael Schwern]

Eliminated a warning that occurred if 'perl Build.PL' or the
check_installed_status() method was run with -w. [Spotted by
