Can't locate ExtUtils/CBuilder.pm in @INC (you may need to install the
ExtUtils::CBuilder module) (@INC contains:

f26, f27 and f28 build fine.
What is going on here? perl-Plack does not carry any direct dependency on
ExtUtils::CBuilder, so my guess would be a dependency is missing somewhere
else.

is happennning due to GCC removal from F29 build root.
If you have a package with XS modules and use Module::Build, you need to
build-require ExtUtils::CBuilder.
In case of Server-Starter, there seems to be a bug in Module::Build::Base. It
invokes auto_require() that for some reason has $self->c_source set to [], and
thus it decides it needs a compiler and hence ExtUtils::CBuilder.
I think this condition in auto_require() should be corrected:
$self->needs_compiler( keys %$xs_files || defined $self->c_source );
and also the reason why $self->c_source is [] instead of undef should be
investigated.
