# To clarify, this isn't the entire suite of modules considered "toolchain"
# It's not even all modules needed to build ext/
# It's just the source paths of the (minimum complete set of) modules in ext/
# needed to build the nonxs modules
# After which, all nonxs modules are in lib, which was always sufficient to
# allow miniperl to build everything else.
# Getopt::Long is here because it's used by podlators, which is one of the
# nonxs modules.
# Term::ReadLine is not here for building but for allowing the debugger to
# run under miniperl when nothing but miniperl will build :-(.
# Text::ParseWords is required in ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid
