Updated spec file is on the same address?

According to ExtUtils::MakeMaker changelog
<http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/MSCHWERN/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.64/Changes>, the
support was added in version 6.06_01. But then there were various bugs
discovered. I don't know since when exactly it's reliable.

In general, I'm not friend of implicit dependencies. Specifying exact
dependencies makes the package safer and more portable. (Imagine someone could
try the package on older or completely different distribution.)
