If you are looking just to make standalone executables, you might want to look at
PAR instead. It works via packing up all the dependencies in a script into 
a zip file that acts like an executable. You can then transfer that executable
from place to place.

works great, and works (with the -c and -e option) for things that perlcc can't 
even touch. (like runtime requres and config files that come with a given 
module.)
