The only reason why it's not a Depends is to avoid a bootstrapping issue
when a new upstream version of Perl comes out. See #675947.

So the goal was clearly to get it installed by default.

OTOH, having it installed might forbid the chroot to be upgraded to the
new perl so it might create problems of its own when we want to switch to
a new Perl. :-|
