 perldoc ExtUtils::MakeMaker

(sp?) or ExtUtils::MM_Unix.  FUNCLIST is not *needed* for Perl
modules; but putting it in may allow using the build DLL in other
situations too (e.g., without Perl interpreter loaded; some dummy PL_*
entries may need to be exported from the executable - similar to what
we did to allow loading Term::Gnuplot as the plotter; Hmm - IICR
Term::Gnuplot should use something like FUNCLIST to enable this).

Hope this helps,
