We'd give you one if we had a clue what it should be. Perl's INSTALL file
has had the following paragraph for years now (i.e. since 5.005_57, in May
1999).
=item HTML pages
Currently, the standard perl installation does not do anything with
HTML documentation, but that may change in the future. Further, some
add-on modules may wish to install HTML documents. The html Configure
variables listed above are provided if you wish to specify where such
documents should be placed. The default is "none", but will likely
eventually change to something useful based on user feedback.
Attempts to get useful user feedback have all failed.
