To fix a different problem, I had TEST run tests basically like this:
  cd t
  ./perl -I. -MTestSetup some/test.t

That should protect it from the above problem.

Anyhow, TestSetup lives in t/ and shouldn't be installed along with
perl.  (Which leaves the possiblity of someone sticking an unrelated
thing in site_perl... but -I. shields against that.)

No, but discussions relevant to both are CC'd between the two.
