You probably run afoul of the following lines in PAR.pm
(starting on line 726):
# Skip DLLs (these will be handled by the dynaloader hook)
# except for those placed in File::ShareDir directories.
next if (m{\.\Q$dlext\E[^/]*$} && !m{^lib/auto/share/(dist|module)/});
But the dynaloader hook is not invoked for your dll (it's only called
for Perl XS "glue dlls").
Try commenting out the "next if..." statement (shouldn't have any negative
consequences) and re-pack your script.
Or you might try to use the
-a "source_dir;target_dir"
notation to pack the tkdnd stuff into a different target_dir (in the
executable) where target_dir matches the second regex above. You may need
to modify stuff that refers to source_dir, though.
