Hmm. But then, you still have the single quotes around it, no?

On my box (pretty plain-ish wheezy)

  tomas@rasputin:~$ perl -V::vendorarch:
  '/usr/lib/perl5' tomas@rasputin:~$ 

quotes, trailing space and all (no newline, that's why the prompt ends up
appended to the output). The output seems built for eval, as in

  tomas@rasputin:~$ eval arch=$(perl -V::vendorarch:)
  tomas@rasputin:~$ echo $arch
  /usr/lib/perl5

(which might be argued to be even uglier as sed, whatever).
