There's no relationship between them. Actually, tools/build/dynoplibs.pl 
and tools/build/dynpmc.pl have already been replaced with makefiles in 
the Parrot build process. But, the scripts haven't been removed yet 
because some external languages are still using them. (Note that the 
scripts only work when run from the Parrot build tree, they don't work 
from an installed Parrot, so any language still using the old scripts 
won't be able to build from an installed Parrot.)
