It so happens that I had the exact same question. In scanning this mail list, I found this thread. Otherwise I would be still trying to fix the warning reported by lintian, namely the warnings, package-installs-nonbinary-perl-in-usr-lib-perl5.
Even though this bug is one of many minor bugs, I would like to submit it.
BTW: The perl ExtUtils::Install.pm package will install *.pm files to /usr/lib/perl5 if it finds a file in the build path blib/arch. Otherwise the *.pm files are installed to /usr/share/perl5.

Bah, I'd file a bug against lintian because lintian's maintainer followed a dumb advice despite the disagreement of the perl maintainer.
Yes, do file a new bug about it, that is going to be good... a good way to get yourself ignored at least.
A less frustrated advice would be to read about lintian-info (lintian -i) and overrides.
