Hrmph.  It seems that Module::ScanDeps does only scan for module files, not
perl scripts.

As a work-around, you can rename cmdQueue.pl to cmdQueue.pm, and just

    require cmdQueue;

which will make Module::ScanDeps (and therefore 'pp') see it.

It will require some working on the assumptions made by PAR; I'll
ponder over that.  Perhaps, in conjunction with Markus's tmpdir patch
(which will allow PAR to extract non-module files under that directory
using its real name instead of CRC name), the @INC lookup can be made to
look for arbitary files, instead of only modules.
