Oh, I hadn't looked that closely. What a wonderful edge-case.

Yeah, I'd already suspected that that would be the case, it's currently coded in
CPANPLUS::Dist::Build as an either or scenario. It of course picks up the version of
Module::Build that is currently available (0.35), but when it runs the Build.PL/Build etc
that'll be using the bundled version.
