They contain a manifest of the module as installed on your system. This makes them redundant considering that a pkg file already contains this, and more, information. I believe the current consensus is that .packlist files should not be copied out of the staging area when creating a pkg of a perl module, and should not be considered part of a pkg. Although it seems that consensus is not followed by all perl module packages. Unfortunately, there is nothing to clean up any pre-existing .packlist files already installed in you $PERL5LIB and it's only at the relatively rare occasions like this when the perl module library switches to a new directory that their presence becomes obvious.
