Better yet, if you want to write more than about 2 modules, just write your own. h2xs adds more useless junk with every Perl release, and Module::Starter seems no better. When you write your own, you type in all and only the boilerplate you want when you write it, and you don't have extraneous garbage inserted when you create future modules. Here's what I use:

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use Getopt::Long;

$ME = q|WHATEVER|;

sub usage
{
    print STDERR <<'EOS';
Usage: newmod.pl [-u 'Name <user@host>'] Module::Name
EOS
    exit 1;
}

GetOptions('user:s' => \$ME) && @ARGV == 1 or usage;

$mod = shift;
($dir = $mod) =~ s/::/-/g;
mkdir $dir or die $!;
chdir $dir;

sub cat
{
    my $o = shift;
    open OUT, ">$o" or die $!;
    print OUT $_ for @_;
    close OUT;
}

($file = $mod) =~ s/.*:://;

cat 'Makefile.PL', <<EOS;
use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;

WriteMakefile(
    NAME              => '$mod',
    VERSION_FROM      => '$file.pm',
    PREREQ_PM         => { },
    (\$] >= 5.005 ?     ## Add these new keywords supported since 5.00
+5
      (AUTHOR         => q|$ME|) : ()),
    ABSTRACT          => 'Something.',
);
