File::Find::Rule is introduced as a dependency in the work for bug 7167. 
However, since it's indirectly invoked via C4::Installer, that module must be
present for Makefile.PL to compile during installation.

I suggest making a new convention that it be possible to run Makefile.PL
without requiring non-core Perl modules. 

F::F::Rule doesn't introduce functionality that is not available to File::Find,
just some (admittedly useful) syntactical sugar, so one possibility would be
cutting out that dependency entirely.  If that's not preferred, it at least
should not be required for Makefile.PL to run.
