UPDATE:
If you explicitly create a ManualCPCAdGroupBids object and pass that
into the operand, it will work.

my $new_bid = 0.14;
my $AdGroupBids =
Google::AdWords::v200909::Types::ManualCPCAdGroupBids->new({
                                      keywordMaxCpc => {
                                        amount => {
                                          microAmount =>
($new_bid*1000000)}
                                    }});
my $operand = {id => 1227687696,
               bids => $AdGroupBids};
my $operations = {operations => [{operator => 'SET',
                                  operand => $operand,
                                 }]
                 };
$response = $client->AdGroupService->mutate($operations);

Must be a bug in the AdGroupService module that won't read the normal
AdGroup object correctly.
