As discussed in #494677, fixing the CGI.pm bug in perl-modules (tracked
as #494679 and waiting for 5.10.0-13 to get in lenny first) should take
care of the original non-deterministic libapache2-mod-perl2 FTBFS bug
(#480154) still present in testing. I don't think we should work around
the problem in libapache2-mod-perl2 at this point.

For reference:

#480154 libapache2-mod-perl2: non-determistic FTBFS: cgiupload tests fail
#494677 libapache2-mod-perl2: FTBFS: dpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: libcgi-pm-perl (>= 3.33)
#494679 perl: $ENV{TMPDIR} breaks CGI.pm in taint mode

Hope this clears it up :)
