Umm... I solved this already.  POE::Preprocessor now honors the
POE_PREPROC_DUMP environment variable.  It should be set to the base
directory where POE::Preprocessor will excrete expanded files.
Subdirectories of POE_PREPROC_DUMP can be added to PERL5LIB, and then
perlapp or perl2exe can generate stand-alone POE EXEs.

That's still far too much work for everyday coding.
