Dear Francois Perrad,
Thanks for your continued work on this. Some comments below.
First, do not put the patch version in the patch title. If you want to
have a version, it should be between the [] at the beginning of the
title. Here is how you can do that with git:
git format-patch --subject-prefix="PATCH v7" <yourbasebranch>

We don't typically offer such choice for packages. Is there a good
reason for doing so in the case of Perl, rather than providing a few
additional kconfig configuration options if needed?

Please explain in more details what this means, and whether this patch
has a chance of being upstream or not.
Also, it seems to imply that the build process of Perl would require
Qemu. Or, Qemu is not amongst the requirements of Buildroot, and there
is no host-qemu package in the dependencies of your package (and we
don't have a host-qemu package). Yann E. Morin has posted a target
package for qemu a while ago, but it hasn't been merged so far.
That said, even so it is certainly possible to create a host-qemu
package, I am a bit annoyed to see the build process of a package
requiring qemu. Is there really no other way? I guess it uses qemu to
run a bunch of tests on the target system. Is there no way to provide
pre-defined values for those tests, on a per-architecture basis, rather
than running those test applications in Qemu?

Sorry, but the patch description is insufficient to understand what is
going on here.

You can use ARCH directly, it is already qstripped.

We generally like to put such commands into parenthesis, i.e:

Is it really INSTALL_DEPENDENCE ?

Maybe just a comment above on why the manual installation of this .so
file is needed.

The host variant of perl seems to be here only as a build dependency of
microperl, which your patch set is deprecating. Is it really necessary
to have this host variant?
