It uses Ricardo's Perl::PrereqScanner, which does a pretty sane job of
it (even detects base/parent and so on).  It has some extensions for
picking up Moose and POE prereqs and so on.

It doesn't help with optional, dynamic prereqs so those have to be
specified manually, but that's unavoidable I think.
