So this happens when perl/perl-modules are unpacked, but not configured yet, and then some dpkg trigger pokes doc-base.
I tried various scenarios with having perl 5.14 unpacked but not configured, and then unpacking, triggering and/or installing doc-base and/or nano. I do get the symbol lookup error plenty of times, but always with

manually after the upgrade process is finished. "*******************************************************************
and the exit code is 0.
But right now I can't make too much sense of the log anyway:
Processing triggers for doc-base ...
/usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/perl5/auto/UUID/UUID.so: undefined symbol: Perl_xs_apiversion_bootcheck
dpkg: error processing doc-base (--unpack):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 127
Errors were encountered while processing:
doc-base
The context shows that at that time perl* are at 5.14/unpacked, but doc-base hasn't been touched anywhere yet. It never said "unpacking doc-base ..." for example, so the "dpkg: error processing doc-base (--unpack)" doesn't make sense, especially since unpack doesn't run postinst scripts.
Was this an upgrade from oneiric, or an intra-precise upgrade?
