Thanks for all the suggestions ;)

Meanwhile the following solutions was suggested from upstream (will be implemented as patch in the port)

-use base qw(JSON::RPC::Server::CGI);
+BEGIN {
+    eval { require JSON::RPC::Server::CGI; };
+    if ($@) {
+        require JSON::RPC::Legacy::Server::CGI;
+        our @ISA = qw(JSON::RPC::Legacy::Server::CGI);
+    }
+    else {
+        our @ISA = qw(JSON::RPC::Server::CGI);
+    }
+}
