I confess I don't know where the heck this META.yml so I did a little
observation
* MATA.yml never appears by "perl5.8.0 Makefile.PL". This is only
prevalent after "bleedperl Makefile.PL" then "make tardist".
"bleedperl Makefile.PL" puts this into Makefile.

And looks like these sections get executed when you "make tardist",
