For most distributions, having Module::Build create a traditional Makefile.PL eliminates the need for Module::Build by end users. Therefore, it's not technically a configure_requires just because a Build.PL exists.
Module::Build can recognize when it is asked to create such a Makefile.PL and not automatically include itself in config_requires. Otherwise, I agree with Adam that it probably ought to, perhaps just defaulting to 0.28.
