trying

perl Build.PL
./Build
./Build test
./Build install

the testing step failed miserably as I don't have Test::Exception 
installed which is not core and not listed as a required module. So 
this should be included.

As a sidenote: When I change Build.PL like this to include the 
aforementioned requirement:

use Module::Build;
# See perldoc Module::Build for details of how this works

Module::Build->new
     ( module_name     => 'Tie::Hash::RegexKeys',
       license         => 'perl',
       requires        => {
                             'Test::Exception' => 0,
                          },
     )->create_build_script;

Then the output I get for ./Build is:

Checking whether your kit is complete...
Looks good
ERROR: Test::Exception: Prerequisite Test::Exception isn't installed
ERRORS/WARNINGS FOUND IN PREREQUISITES.  You may wish to install the 
versions
  of the modules indicated above before proceeding with this installation.

Is it normal that the 'Looks good' appears before the error 
message/appears at all - because apparently it doesn't look good if 
one of the prerquisites is missing ...
