Maybe we should have a macro for "perl Makefile.PL" with your variables
exported, if this is where the hang happened.

perl-HTML-Parser even has the following...

# compile with default options (prompt() checks for STDIN being a terminal).
# yes to not ask for automate rebuild
yes | %{__perl} Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor
%make OPTIMIZE="%{optflags}"
