--- Comment #4 from Petr Pisar <ppisar at redhat.com> ---
The MM::maybe_command() exists in various implementations specific for each
operating system these implementations requires ExtUtils::MakeMaker back.

So it's unlikely that IPC::Cmd upstream would like bundle the
MM::maybe_command(). Also it's unlikely that ExtUtils-MakeMaker upstream will
move maybe_command() into separate module because of the back-requirements to
ExtUtils::MakeMaker.

I could patch perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker to move MM_Unix::maybe_command() into a
new module, sub-package it and patch perl-IPC-Cmd to use that module. However
this will be a hack specific for Fedora and I'm not sure if this is worth to do
that considering there can be other perl-ExtUtils-MakerMaker users like this
perl-IPC-Cmd.
