This is not an A::Z bug. This has become something of a FAQ. Basically, RedHat broke Perl. They apparently have a fixed version in RawHide. You might try running CPAN or creating your Makefile after exporting the LANG environment variable as LANG=C https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=87682
