There has been a change in 1.25 concerning reading of STDIN (this is what
POST does). Dough MacEachern mentioned this some days ago.
IIRC $r->read() now returns nothing instaed of hanging if STDIN has already
been read. I would conjecture that somehow your CGI.pm reads STDIN twice,
overwriting the first read with said nothing.

Did this ever work with POST? You can not POST to an SSI.
