--- Comment #6 from Petr Pisar <ppisar at redhat.com> ---
spamassissin uses ExtUtils::MakeMaker from sa-compile.raw like this:

  my $ccopt = $Config{optimize};      # typically "-O2"

  open(FILE, ">Makefile.PL")  or die "cannot create Makefile.PL: $!";
  print FILE <<"EOT"  or die "error writing to Makefile.PL: $!";
    use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;

    WriteMakefile(
    'NAME' => '$modname',
    'VERSION_FROM' => '$PMFILE',
    'ABSTRACT_FROM' => '$PMFILE',
    'OBJECT' => '\$(O_FILES)',
    'OPTIMIZE' => '$ccopt',
    'AUTHOR' => 'A. U. Tomated <automated\@example.com>',
    );
EOT

See the OPTIMIZE (and following not quoted XS code)---it fiddles with CFLAGS.
Therefore spassassin is the case why perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker needs perl-devel.

This is classic counterexample for your complain "We don't need perl-devel".
