but a properly behaving CPAN client (or other tool that installs modules) should always prefer a Build.PL if it exists

May I ask where that is documented? I explicitly prefer the Makefile.PL way of doing things.

    Yes, me too.
    And the suggestion that some ad-hoc method of installing modules from CPAN should take precedence over a procedure that's already in the perl CORE is (at best) counter-intuitive.
