I've got an answer from the upstream developer.
perl-AnyEvent doesn't need need any dependencies (some will need to be
filtered). So I guess perl-EV will BR perl-AnyEvent (or at least Requires at
runtime).
Once perl-EV is installed, perl-AnyEvent will elect this module (instead of
perl(Glib) or others ,because it is the fastest.
And I guess the dependent modules will only requires perl(AnyEvent), so i still
need to sort this out, and submit perl-AnyEvent for review first...

About the libev be built internally, here is the upstream answer:
----------------------
EV comes with it's own copy of libev and cannot possibly links against a
preinstalled system libev (they are ABI-incompatible).

Therefore, EV itself has no external dependencies (but of course it is
arch-dependent).
----------------------
I don't know if it is how perl arch dependant modules will works.
