I don't see the /tmp thing with the current version (-19), only these:
# Perl @INC directory `/usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0' does not appear to exist.
# Perl @INC directory `/usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0' does not appear to exist.
We could create the directories in a postinst script, but I'm not sure
I see the point. They will be created automatically when installing
CPAN modules.
I see 'perlivp -a' is also missing quite a few .ph files.
# Perl header `stdio.ph' does not appear to be properly installed.
# Perl header `arpa/inet.ph' does not appear to be properly installed.
(and lots of others)

See #510984 for some plans for the .ph files.
