If you are going to be building perl, you really need to do it "self-hosted",
unless you are prepared to do significant modification to the perl build system.
  Perl insists on being self-hosted compiled, it generates dynamic signal lists
and other structures based on the machine performing the compile, obviously that
doesn't work right in a cross compile situation.
