I tried PAR Packer and perl2exe. In both cases I get an exe file which doesn't start, although it throughs no warnings or errors. It seems there is something in the GUI that causes the trouble.

You need to show what you tried :)

Like in PAR Packer exe file doesn't run, I encounter no problems with the code you've shared.

Actually, I did find a regression in Module::ScanDeps 1.03 if I use pp -x pm.915330.pl

but pp -c pm.915330.pl works, a.exe gets created, it runs, tk gui pops up
