prompted by Benni, I attempted to update the package from SVN (more or less identical to the 2.5.0_1 version released in March), and this particular bug is indeed fixed. I needed a fair amount of bolts and duct tape to actually get the package to build, though. Since it's too late for wheezy anyway, and given that upstream is "currently working on a payed project which includes fixing Embperl for Perl 5.14 & 5.16" [1] I think we can wait for a new stable version to be published and I'll see if I can push our existing and my additional patches upstream.
