Thanks for noticing this. I see we've got a few special cases in the perl maintainer tests (see the %ok hash in http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=perl/perl.git;a=blob;f=debian/t/control.t;hb=HEAD ), one of which is to map libautodie-perl version number 2.1001 to 2.10.01. I don't think the others are necessary for the lintian use case, but I'm not quite sure right now. I'm unfortunately short on time so no patch.
