I thought I saw somewhere the term LTS used with respect to Perl 5.24 
but can't find it now... however they do push pretty hard to run the 
latest version:

  * On https://www.perl.org/get.html it says, "We recommend that you
    always run the latest stable version, currently 5.24.0. If you're
    running a version older than 5.8.3, you may find that the latest
    version of CPAN modules will not work."
  * On http://www.cpan.org/src/README.html it says "End of life" for all
    versions earlier than 5.22.2

If mod_perl doesn't work on any version except those marked "End of 
life" in CPAN, I think that's a problem.
