Subject: Implicit modules
The perl runtime may implicitly require certain modules. For example, named captures (%+ and %-) require Tie::Hash::NamedCapture. Globbing ( e.g. <*.c> ) requires File::Glob. Etc.. Scandeps -B should include these modules since it is almost impossible to detect whether they will be actually needed.

PAR::Packer already always packs: Tie::Hash::NamedCapture PerlIO PerlIO::Scalar Errno utf8 I'm not sure taht adding these to Module::ScanDeps makes much sense. Cheers, Roderich
Because scandeps is a tool that can be used independently from PAR::Packer?
