It ain't bug in ActivePerl but only in your file extension mapping.
Start regedit.exe
go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pl
see what's the default value
go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\<that value>
open .\Shell\Open\command
make sure the default value is
"D:\Perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1" %*
(of course with different path to perl.exe if needed)
All should be fine then.
