I read the man page and I tried searching, but either my search skills have significantly deteriorated or search engines have, because I have trouble now finding any technical answers on google/etc regardless of the question.

With MakeMaker, one can set the CFLAGS with OPTIMIZE="whatever" as an environmental variable when running perl Makefile.PL

It then gets put in the generated Makefile

With perl Build.PL which does not use make I can not figure out how to do the equivalent.

It must be simple, I just can't find it.

Thank you for suggestions.
