think that this could be done by specifying LDFLAGS="-R$ORIGIN/../lib" but while it does work for C, I'm not able to do this with Perl/CPAN. How can I do?

It works for perl too, simply export LDFLAGS=... or edit Makefile.PL and add it to ExtUtils::MakeMaker::WriteMakefile

Perl/"CPAN" does not override this, so export LDFLAGS= or any other linker/compiler options should just work, every time :)

So you could, change Rpath after the fact

chrpath- a tool to change the DT_RPATH attribute of an executable and convert it to an DT_RUNPATH attribute
patchELF - a small utility to modify the dynamic linker and DT_RUNPATH attribute of ELF executables.

set it through ldflags

export LDFLAGS=...

link against static versions of libxml/libxslt/libexpat...

./configure --enable-static --disable-shared
./configure --enable-static --disable-shared CFLAGS=-static-libgcc prefix=/my/install/prefix 
$config{LIBS}='-l...libxml2.a -l...libiconv.a';
$config{INC}='-I...include/libxml2';
$config{DEFINE} =' -DLIBXML_STATIC ';
WriteMakefile(
              %INFOS,
              %config,
);

Or when setting up your development enviroment, mirror your target directory structure with symbolic links

ln -s itsmylocal/xmltv /.../xmltv
