we dont care about what it says in the Makefile.PL but what it says in the generated Makefile (with a regex that comes straight from ExtUtils::MakeMaker itself) regarding prereqs..
you can test it in the shell by typing:

! print Dumper $cpan->module_tree->{'POE::Component::IRC::Object'}

check for the key 'prereqs' and see what it says...

It say nothing, but too for other modules:
Terminal CPAN> !print Dumper $cpan->module_tree->{'POE::Component::IRC::Object'}
$VAR1 = bless( {
'_id' => 1,
'status' => {},
'version' => '0.02',
'dslip' => ' ',
'author' => 'MSERGEANT',
'path' => 'M/MS/MSERGEANT',
'description' => '',
'package' => 'POE-Component-IRC-Object-0.02.tar.gz',
'prereqs' => {},
'comment' => '',
'module' => 'POE::Component::IRC::Object'
}, 'CPANPLUS::Internals::Module' );
maybe i wasnt clear enough.. you first have to try installing the module.. it will then (after doing 'perl Makefile.PL') scan the Makefile for prereqs and store them in the module object.

also, you have prereqs set to automatically follow? otherwise, it'll probably not work indeed...
Of course I automatically follow links. I use 0.042.
it's an option you know ;)
