Okay, I'll bite:  You are running a perl application and
handling dependencies from makefiles?  Or creating a
makefile to install a bundle of modules?  I am really not
clear on what your layout here is.

Explain a little about how the system is structured, so that
we can understand the problem?  Particularly the phrase
"this program might be dependent on changes in those libs"
confuses me.  If the libraries -do- change, what action
should your makefile/app be performing?
