Hmm - I guess the special code in Module::Build checks for . only at the 
_end_ (or beginning?) of the INC list, and the difference of how 
debhelper and cdbs applies the option affects the order.

I will adjust the code in CDBS, but I believe that to be only a 
workaround and it should be fixed in Module::Build (as a patch in 
Debian, if upstream chooses to dismiss it).
