It sounds like Tim's "what it does" is to provide you with libfoo so 
other modules can link against that.  That is the classic:  "I need 
libfoo.  How do I declare a dependency on a non-perl thing?"

Seems like Alien would be the place for that.  If it goes by e.g. 
libpng, then Alien::libpng seems natural.
