 I suspect it does...  I've tried to bring this up in the parrot
 community, but they say something to the effect that "you're not
 supposed to use that config variable to get at the parrot lib",
 and for some reason they don't think that references to the build
 directory in "supposed not to be used" config variables is a bug.
 I tend to differ, but it looks like I'm losing that battle.
 
 See https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/762 and
