There is a serious problem here, which we haven't yet figured out how to
solve:  how do we get fink (and apt-get) to only install the correct
flavor of perl things, unless specifically requested to do otherwise?

Your regex business is a nice solution for things that are directly
calling fink, but I'm not sure how to make apt-get respect a user's
choice in matters like this.
