So the difference is that now you ship just your main program and the user has to look up all the modules on CPAN himself, and the licence allows for whoever downloads it directly from CPAN to use it, but doesn't allow you to redistribute the module as part of a larger system?Yes, or at least it may apply a license to your program that you wouldn't otherwise want applied to it. License conflicts generally get you something that's not distributable.
Perhaps the licence issue needs to be addressed as part of CPAN for Perl 6. Perhaps a standard package variable can be proposed so a compiler/bundler/linker can check this.No. Licensing issues are social and legal things, and not generally amenable to a technical solution.
