... before one can run perl Makefile.PL to do a new installation.  I don't
think that (in this case, indirectly) requiring a non-core Perl module to
run the first step of the installation after unpacking the tarball is a
good idea.  I've opened bug 9328 to discuss the specifics, but I think
there's a minor coding principle to discuss: should we have an explicit
requirement that only core modules be necessary to start the installation?
