Bug#530675: dh-make-perl: uninit warning building cpan libintl-perl

Package: dh-make-perl
Version: 0.55
Severity: minor
File: /usr/bin/dh-make-perl

When building libintl-perl from cpan,

    wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/G/GU/GUIDO/libintl-perl-1.18.tar.gz
    tar xfz libintl-perl-1.18.tar.gz
    dh-make-perl --build libintl-perl-1.18

dh-make-perl gives a warning

    Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/DhMakePerl.pm line 545.

This is without any ~/.dh-make-perl config file, if that makes a
difference.

libintl-perl is a debian package of course, so dh-make-perl is not
normally needed on it, but perhaps the warning is something to do with
"-perl" already in the name.
