h2xs is not such a good idea in this day and age. Even module-starter would be
better, and there's also Dist-Zilla.

In any case, please see the resources at http://perl-begin.org/topics/cpan/ and
especially http://perl-begin.org/topics/cpan/#preparing-dists (*Note*:
perl-begin.org is a site I created and maintain).

You may also wish to study these resources I wrote regarding best practices:

* http://perl-begin.org/tutorials/bad-elements/
