Ah yes, you're right. Either mod_perl or perl-setuid is required for  
backuppc. I didn't understand you were talking about the backuppc  
ebuild, I thought you were talking about Perl. I don't know if the  
default setup of the backuppc ebuild uses CGI or mod_perl, but if it  
uses CGI then setuid should be a dependency. In the meantime you  
could however install setuid and see if it works for you then. But  
also report the issue to the ebuild maintainer.
