IOW, in the above case, we have *three* modules:

 - module "infrastructure", that is the union of submodules/paths "lib" 
   and "build"
 - module "lib" (== submodule/path "lib")
 - module "build" (== submodule/path "build")

If there are three modules, then why is one in the "module" section
and the other two in the "submodule" section?
Why not allow a module to both contain smaller modules and be contained
in a bigger module?
