I verified that fixing this hasn't changed any of the functionality.

Looking back at when the change was introduced, it was in commit
1cabe1b2 (20 May) where I removed the Swig 1.3.32 minimum requirement.
Building without the Perl development files (uninstalling perl-devel on
Fedora) Cmake doesn't error out and the build completes without the Perl
bindings, as expected. Installing perl-devel and running the build
produces the Perl bindings.
