perl is often used for long running services (mailgraph, smokeping, postgrey..)
as well as called from webservers with untrusted input

so it should be "Full RELRO" and PIE
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#PIE
______________________________________________________

If your package meets any of the following criteria you MUST enable the PIE
compiler flags:

    Your package is long running. This means it's likely to be started and keep
running until the machine is rebooted, not start on demand and quit on idle. 

    Your package has suid binaries, or binaries with capabilities. 

    Your package runs as root. 

If your package meets the following criteria you should consider enabling the
PIE compiler flags:

    Your package accepts/processes untrusted input.

[root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ checksec --file /usr/bin/perl
RELRO           STACK CANARY      NX            PIE             RPATH     
RUNPATH      FILE
Partial RELRO   Canary found      NX enabled    No PIE          RPATH     
RUNPATH      /usr/bin/perl
