Does cygport require perl modules to be installed as build

Yes.
See __list_deps in pkg_info.cygpart
Saw that under 'check_prog\sperl'.
I don't know how we could traverse from module to package otherwise
(other interpreted languages e.g. python, etc., generally have the same
issue).
So we need to do this for all interpreted language scripts with language
module dependencies supported in cygport.
I don't see this a huge problem, as these dependencies would probably
need to be installed to run tests, if the package has any.
True: good point; ta!
