I created ticket 55909 in queue 'Module-Build' for this issue.  I am
agnostic on whether this is a documentation bug or a
misimplementation.

I eventually put the requirement in both 'requires' and
'build_requires', but that's just because I want to get my module
tested.  It does look like, going forward, situations where the same
module is specified in 'requires' and 'build_requires' will need to be
supported.  Otherwise folks who thought they needed to specify both
will have their modules stop building.

In my reading the meta spec is less clear.  The meta spec could be
read as supporting either behavior, while the Module::Build::API is
clearly wrong if the behavior I observed is the intended behavior.
