PARing autobox has me stumped

For some reason PAR::Packer isn't remembering to packing autobox's
modules, but only when run on the (production) debian 4.5 systems, or
Win32 with Strawberry Perl.
Has anyone else seen this behaviour?

Here's a really minimal test case:

----- test.pl -------
#!/usr/bin/perl
use autobox;
-----------------------

$ pp -p -o test.par test.pl
$ unzip -l test.par | grep autobox


On Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04, that returns a list that includes autobox.pm
and autobox.so.
However on Debian Etch 4.0 & 4.5 and Strawberry Perl it returns nothing.

Any thoughts from ones wiser than I?

Cheers,
Toby
