"Default" ("base") install is already super-hyper-bloated. I'd avoid
cluttering it even more.
OTOH, you could go "classic", in a similar way like, for instance, in order
to be able to build a gtk2 dependent app you need (among others) the
"gtk-devel" package.
So, you could alleviate this by adding (artificial) dependencies to the
"perl-devel" package in order to bring up *all* "core Perl" packages.
For the current split status, this should feel quite ok, as all those
packages have a "developerish" nature:
%package devel
...
Requires: perl(CPAN)
Requires: perl(ExtUtils::Embed)
Requires: perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker)
Requires: perl(Test::Harness)
Requires: perl(Test::Simple)
