I am still having this same problem. The only non-CentOS package I have installed is Astro::Time via cpan. I have looked at the bug report but am not sure what to do next. I have two x86_64 units that still have the problem.
Make sure the Extras repo is enabled on the machine, the upgrade should go through fine.
Here is what I am getting:

It looks like some perl thing is trying to keep the perl at the OLD level.
(you have plenty of rf packages, which is rpmforge ... those are NON-CentOS pacakges. I am not saying those are the problem, just pointing out your original statement is in error where you list only one NON-CentOS package)
First, do you have x86_64 and i386 perl installed ... if so, do you need them?
This should tell you if you have both versions installed: rpm -q perl
Maybe try this (all one line):
yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=updates --enablerepo=base --enablerepo=extras upgrade perl
