perldebug has this:
"ornaments" Affects screen appearance of the command line (see Term::ReadLine). There is currently no way to disable these, which can render some output illegible on some displays, or with some pagers. This is considered a bug.So maybe you encountered this bug. The doc says something about readline, so maybe try
$ PERLDB_OPTS=Readline=0 perl -d myprogram.pl
