[PATCH] perl: improve reproducibility

[PATCH] perl: improve reproducibility

[Ross Burton]

Occasionally the reproducibility selftest fails because perl-pod differs,
specifically that the perltoc.pod file was sometimes missing modules.

Debugging revealed that there are missing dependencies so there is a build race:
building perltoc.pod from an clean build tree results in no modules being listed
at all.

A bug has been filed at https://github.com/arsv/perl-cross/issues/86 to solve
this properly, but for now we can just delete perltoc.pod after make has
finished and re-generate it.
