In /usr/bin/ you should have a link which will point to the default 
version of Perl --  Eg:

?$  cd /usr/bin/; ls -al

...
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 25 Dec 19  2008 perl -> /usr/local/bin/perl5.10.0

You can delete this link and create a new one to point to the Perl 
binary you want to use.  I seem to recall that you need to log out 
and log in again for the link to show up correctly in the /usr/bin/ 
listing.
