AFAIK you must just ensure that whatever you upload is compiled against perl
5.12. If it really becomes necessary to block uploads, the release team
can do it on their own.
And since the transition is not yet completed, you're unlikely to block
something at this point:
http://release.debian.org/transitions/html/perl.html
Of course I'm assuming that the package will be immediatily ready (as most
perl modules are) and won't have issues to migrate should the release team
decide to force the transition in (and thus not wait the aging period for
your module).
