With Perl you use frameworks like Catalyst, Dancer or Mojolicuous to write web applications and with them you can switch from mod_perl to fastcgi and vice versa without changing a single line of code. In addition, you get an integrated development webserver and support for running over plain old CGI and it's trivial to scale up by serving static files with a different server like ngnix or lighttpd.
It cannot possibly get easier than that.

The problem starts when it is necessary to quickly port to FastCGI badly written and unmaintained scripts that are not written using those frameworks. With PHP it just works with default settings. With Perl it requires to manually fix those. So despite all its limitations and ugliness PHP was a winner in my case due to universality of its default configuration.
