Description

       This module is an extension of Dist::Build::XS, adding an additional argument to the "add_xs" function:
       "alien". It will add the appropriate arguments for that alien module to the build. It can be either a
       string or a list of strings. If the strings don't contain "::" they're prepended with 'Alien::' before
       the module is loaded.
