I'm not convinced that this dependency is right at all. EU::Typemap is
never used in the codebase, and I'd expect any potential code generated
by ParseXS to yield a dependency on EU::Typemap*s*, as it bundles that
module.

I think that just dropping the EU::Typemap dependency in Build.PL would
be fine.

Cheers,
