A package I was running uses suidperl. For some reason, it's disappeared. I need to replace it.
In order to minimize security risks, suidperl is no longer a routine part of a Perl installation. You "could" reinstall it with (some older version of) perl, I suppose; but folks nowadays use a simple set-id wrapper program that will safely invoke its target script. There's source for a wrapper in the perlsec manpage.
