=head1 NAME

Module::Build::YAML - Provides just enough YAML support so that Module::Build works even if YAML.pm is not installed

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Module::Build::YAML;

    ...

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Provides just enough YAML support so that Module::Build works even if YAML.pm is not installed.

Currently, this amounts to the ability to write META.yml files when C<perl Build distmeta>
is executed via the Dump() and DumpFile() functions/methods.
