Thank for filing these bugzillas.
Welcome. ATM, these are still open:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=611009 Fedora maintainer and upstream
maintainer seem to have difficulties in
understanding the issue and finding a solution. Iain has proposed a
(IMHO) viable work-around, but no conclusions/results so far.

FTBS, open since 2009-11-19, no response from maintainer.
I'd propose to close and abandon the perl-* packages rather "soonish
than later" and not to wait for "Fedora 14". I.e. I'd propose to set
these package's maintainers a firm deadline (say, 1-2 weeks from now)
and then to kill the then remaining perl-modules.
IMO, these package's maintainers and their upstreams knew about these
packages issues for long enough and had sufficiently often been warned.
