${1}::${2} is a pretty good way to disambiguate, I guess, but \:\: is 2 characters less (in case you ever wanna golf)

You could even say 

$new_type =~ s/([a-z])([A-Z])/"$1::$2"/g;
#"$1::$2" - strings are a monks best friend

Please be patient with me. I am new to Perl and am used to working with PHP, so regexs are pretty foreign to me.

So what you're saying is you need to try harder (at least that's what you're *supposed* to do ;D - I know i know, whatever....)
