That's because the problem is not really related to perl at all. It's
#625631, fixed two days ago in rrdtool 1.4.3-3 which hasn't migrated to
testing yet.

If I understand this correctly, a latent bug in rrdtool got triggered
the first time the package was built with gcc 4.5, which happened to be
the necessary rebuild to update the perl bindings for Perl 5.12.

Reassigning and merging.
