The unversioned conflict was added in <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=721364> to solve an upgrade problem. As Niko says in that bugreport: "So, we may need to [...] forbid separately packaged versions of modules in perl-base,". Could you say what you need from a newer libscalar-list-utils-perl package? Depending on what the issue is, we could consider changes in perl-base. This bug report can serve to track better solutions to the problem too; but I don't see an easy fix.
