in thread The perl source directory structure
The use of Makefile.PL in ext/[1] provides a well-established way to instruct how to build them. This is why modules with binary components are in ext/ and not lib/.
This is what was called "CPAN-like", but isn't really because the directories here don't have any of the other files that CPAN wants.
