I don't think this should ever happen in a port; Module::Build should
be a MacPorts dependency instead.  And the chain of events started by
this could well break a lot of stuff by replacing the expected
versions of packages with different and potentially incompatible
versions.

File a bug at http://trac.macports.org/wiki/Tickets.
