If "perl-cleaner --all" doesn't fix it, then do it the long way round:

unmerge Crypt-PasswdMD5, emerge perl-5.20.2 then emerge Crypt-PasswdMD5
back. There may be more perl modules causing the same issue before you
can successfully emerge perl-5.20.2. List them and do the above for all.

emerge does not use prel. It uses python.
You are safe.
