I have some really hard trouble reproducing this in a small test case,
or even understanding how this could possibly hit with perl. The doc
/perl-base -> perl symlink wouldn't even be valid in a debian/perl-base/
build tree, as it cannot be resolved. pkgstripfiles just ignores invalid
symlinks.
But I'm fairly convinced that this specific instance is a perl specific
problem. It does some really nasty manual shell hacks to install
documentation (no debhelper at all), and I added a test case with a
similar scenario which it handles just fine.
