Hi all,

for my two XS modules - XML::LibXML and XML::LibXSLT, I've been getting many
build+test failures such as these:

Reading from it, we see:

The problem is that the shared library was found, but the development package
is not present, so the external headers cannot be found and I'm getting a
failure.

My question is: using Makefile.PL and ExtUtils::MakeMaker - how can I detect
for the non-existence of these headers on the system, and if so - abort?
