-----------------------------------+--------------------
 When building Search::Xapian with CPANPLUS the script Makefile.PL
 overwrites the Makefile created by ExtUtils::!MakeMaker with a stub
 Makefile as the variables $srcdir and $buildir are defined and identical.
 As a consequence the make command calls itself in an infinite loop. The
 attached patch replaces "if (defined $builddir)" with "if (defined
 $builddir && $builddir ne $srcdir)".

 CPANPLUS executes Makefile.PL in the following way:

 cd $srcdir

 perl -e 'use strict; BEGIN { my $old = select STDERR; $|++; select $old;
 $|++; $0 = shift(@ARGV); my $rv = do($0); die $@ if $@; }'
 $srcdir/Makefile.PL
