To go down that road, you could just use:

package mixin;
1;

(You need the package line for RPM to pick up the Provides.)  I built a quick
package using this and it does work.  It probably satisfies the letter of the
requirement, but I'm sure there will be objections as it's far nastier than just
a single Provides: line and is obvious trickery which purists will hate.  On the
plus side, is prevents conflicts with any hypothetical mixin.pm that may appear
in the future.

Barring that, perhaps we could get the dependency filter into the Perl template?
 130 packages needing it certainly argues for general accessibility.
