Maybe try using a configuration/build system:

http://www.shlomifish.org/open-source/resources/software-tools/ (*NOTE*:
www.shlomifish.org is my home site).

Perl has some of its own dedicated build systems for CPAN-like modules (see
http://perl-begin.org/topics/cpan/ ) but I don't know how well they support
fatpacking stuff.
