If I remember right, the include-paths have changed. Because this broke
nearly every perl-script on my machine, I fixed this through the
file-system: move all the modules into the new include-path and make the
old directory a link to the new one.

/usr/lib/perl5/

   lrwxrwxrwx   1 root  root       10 Nov 12 16:08 i486-linux -> i386-linux

i386-linux

   lrwxrwxrwx   1 root  root        7 Nov 12 16:08 5.003 -> 5.00307
   drwxr-xr-x  15 root  root     1024 Nov 12 16:07 5.00307

Similar problems can affect every other directory with perl-modules, e.g.
/usr/local/lib/site-perl/.
