I don't think it's really necessary.  The distribution will be packed
with a META.yml generated with Module::Build and end-users will not be
recreating it during a normal perl Makefile.PL, make, make test
install cycle.

Further, making it carry over would mandate an updated version of
EU::MM to avoid Makefile.PL errors, so it might actually make things
worse for end-users.
