But you might have an even easier option - you might be able to monkey patch the XS-generating code right from inside your Inline module! Because again, it's the module that checks, not the interpreter.

But practically speaking, if I had a handshake error I would be highly interested in getting everything back to working order with perl invoking the correct compiler against the correct headers. You need this baseline to be able to add XS modules from CPAN.
