This is to fix cross NixOS builds. buildPerlModule uses Module::Build
which does not cross-build. The package doesn't seem to need
Module::Build so switching to buildPerlPackage seems to be safe.

The build output is a superset of the original derivation, so I see no reason why this wouldn't work.

+ .../lib/perl5/5.34.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/perllocal.pod

Other than that, it's equal.
