 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 
+This compiler is typically run by the makefiles created by L<ExtUtils::MakeMaker>.
+
 I<xsubpp> will compile XS code into C code by embedding the constructs
 necessary to let C functions manipulate Perl values and creates the glue
 necessary to let Perl access those functions.  The compiler uses typemaps to
