Fwd: EU::MM LIBS winnowed too-early at .PL-time?

I'm forwarding to the [email protected] list, as this is not likely
to be of general interest to all module authors.

Hi,
In Judy I have a PREREQ_PM using Alien::Judy which by it's action
installs libJudy.so and Judy.h. I also have a LIBS and INC which refer
to the thing being installed. It appears that my Makefile.PL's LIBS
argument is being tossed because the specified directories and their
contents don't exist but *will* by the time it will be actually used.

   PREREQ_PM => {
       'Alien::Judy' => 0
   },
   INC => "-I$Config{sitearch}/Alien/Judy",
   LIBS => "-L$Config{sitearch}/Alien/Judy -lJudy"

Can I get EU::MM to stop filtering my LIBS for me?

Josh
