g:Perl_PerlTags isn't part of any recent (7.0+) ftplugin/perl.vim.
Googling it, I found:

http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=556

which has a changelog from 2008-01-02:

+ Global variable g:Perl_PerlTags is no longer needed.

So, perhaps you're using that and updating that script might help? Are
you using a particularly old version of Vim?
