I've taken a look at using Module::Pluggable to register configure

configure files to .pm because of hardwired assumptions in
Module::Pluggable.
How do you get correct dependencies for the steps then?
As in my original proposal, Configure.pl would have to set the order
that the steps run in. Longer term it'd be nice to build a dependency
tree between the steps and execute them in order of dependencies.
That sounds suspiciously like a Makefile.
This is a workable solution if there won't be a holy war over
importing
Module::Pluggable into the Parrot tree. How do people feel about
this?
No problem here, if there are significan advantages when using it.
OK.
