I corresponded with Moo's maintainer and others on IRC. Moo does not
have any hard prerequisites on XS modules so it can be used in places
without a compiler. The upstream decision is essentially for use cases
that do not apply here: fatpacking or building from source without a
compiler.
The consensus seemed to be that it was reasonable to have
Class::XSAccessor listed as a hard prerequisite when packaging for
Debian. Thanks!
Kind regards,
Felix Lechner
