From a ~ubuntu-server perspective, perl packages are very, very low maintenance work, so having two similar packages is not a problem in the slightest since they sync from debian without needing any attention at all. Maintaining some non-mainstream patches going forward would be a small bit of work but absolutely acceptable if that is desired.
