Done. I added the following to upgrading-checklist:
<tag>perl</tag>
<item> Perl package should use the <tt>%Config</tt> hash to locate module
paths instead of hardcoding paths in <tt>@INC</tt>.
</item>
<tag>perl</tag>
<item> Perl binary modules and any modules installed into
<tt>$Config{vendorarch}</tt> must depend on the relevant
<package>perlapi-*</package> package.
Hoping this is adequate.
