EU:CB is poor on this aspect of linking.  See, for example, the gyrations
that I go through with Devel::CallChecker and Scope::Escape::Sugar,
where the latter imports functions from the former.  (This because I use
Module::Build, which uses EU:CB.)  Having got this to work with chewing
gum and baling wire, the next step, which I haven't yet attempted,
is to build good interfaces for this into EU:CB and M:B.
