commit bb8afbf5a1fbc85f700c0e07ce5581637e3674dc
Author: Ludovic Courtès <address@hidden>
Date:   Sun Jan 17 18:41:20 2016 +0100

    gnu: Add dependency on Perl's 'Module::Build' as needed.
    
    'Module::Build' was deprecated in Perl 5.20 and removed in 5.22.
    Some packages need to explicitly depend on it now.
    
    * gnu/packages/perl.scm (perl-class-factory-util):
    (perl-date-manip, perl-devel-checkbin): Add 'native-inputs' field.
    (perl-module-build)[description]: Mention that it used to be in Perl.
    * gnu/packages/web.scm (perl-cgi-simple)[native-inputs]: Add
    PERL-MODULE-BUILD.
