Any thoughts on how to do this without breaking everything open?

With the current fink, the way to make a system-* package would be:

filename: system-perlmodules.info

Package: system-perlmodules
Version: 1.0
Provides: gd-pm, algorithm-diff-pm, http-dav-pm.... (parse the package names from the output of "fink list --section=perlmods -w=200" and put them all here)
Type: nosource
CompileScript: echo "Placeholder for all perlmod packages" >> README
InstallScript: echo "none"
DocFiles: README

(the README is needed because dpkg complains if you have zero files in a package)

put that in /sw/fink/10.2/local/main/finkinfo/ and "fink install system-perlmodules".

That will work for everything except things that have a "versioned" dependency on a perl module. (cause you can't "provide" a version with the current fink)
