On my up to date Squeeze amd64 system:

  $ sha1sum /bin/bash /usr/bin/perl
  add19e504c254758f2ea8dcda3821c77fafb4923  /bin/bash
  13e50d52280d120bf8c71c7eaf4e7431c9afa392  /usr/bin/perl

They match your versions.  So I would say that whatever is happening
here that it is a false positive.

I would guess that rkhunter has cached values for those files and that
those cached values are stale.  Figure out where it is getting those
stored values from and update them.
