Did you change perl-with-changes/MANIFEST to include the new files and
remove the old file?

It is normal to provide patches against the current development version of
Perl ("bleedperl"), not 5.9.1 or 5.8.x. The 5.8.x branch maintainer
normally then integrates those changes back into 5.8.x.
The document pod/perlhack.pod explains how to get hold of bleedperl.
