Upstream removed suidperl support in 5.12. I think we should indeed have announced this better (although you will have seen the perl-suid package being removed). We don't seem to have a NEWS.Debian file in the perl package; I wonder if this would be a suitable place to put this information or whether it should eventually go somewhere like the release notes for wheezy.
