is happennning due to GCC removal from F29 build root.

If you have a package with XS modules and use Module::Build, you need to
build-require ExtUtils::CBuilder.

In case of Server-Starter, there seems to be a bug in Module::Build::Base. It
invokes auto_require() that for some reason has $self->c_source set to [], and
thus it decides it needs a compiler and hence ExtUtils::CBuilder.

I think this condition in auto_require() should be corrected:

    $self->needs_compiler( keys %$xs_files || defined $self->c_source );

and also the reason why $self->c_source is [] instead of undef should be
investigated.
