My guess here is that you left out the "Type: perl" line?  The  
default CompileScript is different for "Type: perl" packages than it  
is for most packages.

The easiest way to create the legacy package is just to use the  
same .info file as before, but we "Type: perl (581)" (which will just  
restrict it to perl581).  Also, you need to rename the file as i  
mentioned before.
