Ooh, there's the problem. Steve wins the prize :-). On my system
$ ls -l /usr/bin/perl*
-rwxr-xr-x 3 root root 707692 Dec 3 10:05 /usr/bin/perl
-rwxr-xr-x 3 root root 707692 Dec 3 10:05 /usr/bin/perl-5.6
-rwxr-xr-x 3 root root 707692 Dec 3 10:05 /usr/bin/perl5.6.1
$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/perl
perl-base: /usr/bin/perl
$ dpkg -l perl-base

$ diff -b /usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl5.6.1

I think you can just hardlink /usr/bin/perl5.6.1 (or
/usr/bin/perl-5.6) to /usr/bin/perl.
# ln /usr/bin/perl5.6.1 /usr/bin/perl

No need to, the problem is not with make-kpkg itself, but that
/usr/bin/perl doesn't exist on your system.
