In Perl 5.24.0, the integrated podlators module was upgraded from 2.28
from 4.0.7 [0].

AIUI, changing perl-build-system will require rebuilding all Perl
packages. If so, how about updating Perl to 5.24.0 instead of changing
the build system?

Do Perl updates tend to break a lot of Perl packages? If so, changing
the build system and rebuilding might be done sooner than a Perl update,
since this change seems unlikely to break any packages.

Your advice requested :)
