That's because F14 spec files installs into vendor, not into
perl/core.

No, it didn't. See spec files.

And that should be fixed. We would like to fix spec file when it will be
touched for some reason (e.g. version upgrade). We decided not to do massive
rebuild because vaste majority of packages does not need that.

If there are some packages that open files manually, this is a problem and
they should be rebuilt. IMHO those packages should their data install outside
perl include paths as they are not a code. However perl have no standard way
how to do it.
