Indeed, the idea was to be able to have a separate perl module if
needed.  I wanted it in order to facilitate for instance GNU/Linux 
distributions packaging in case they would have a strict policy of perl
modules in perl directories.

The perl standalone module is created by 

./maintain/prepare_perl_standalone_module_archive.sh

But with the XS module, it is probable that it does not work anymore,
probably some changes are needed for XS packages.  I'll check if it
still works without change.
