Okay, so following up the hint that people have been
putting emacs lisp on cpan, I went looking for some to
see how it's being done (I know cperl-mode.el used to be up
there, but it hasn't been for awhile, perhaps because it's
becoming part of Gnu emacs).
Anyway, I find that by searching cpan for "emacs" and looking very closely through *all* of the results I turned
up some emacs lisp packages I didn't know about:
I'm glad to see the "sepia" project (an effort to add features
to emacs to compete with the graphical IDEs), but I'm a
little disappointed to see that no one seems to have a good
way to install elisp and info files using the traditional
Makefile.PL. ExtUtils::MakeMaker doesn't seem to have
provisions for looking for a good "site-lisp" to install
some elisp... the INSTALL directions for sepia just say
"put the elisp files somewhere Emacs will find them".
(You see, GNU emacs has no package manager of it's own...
I was looking for away to (ab)use CPAN as a substitute.)

For a start, you can do something like
emacs -q --batch --eval '(print load-path)' which will give a list of emacs' default load path, parse it and search for the first site-lisp directory (with or without the version number).

The only "perl-related emacs list files" I know of is cperl-mode by Ilya in his directory which is my favorite authoring environement.
