[opensuse] Suse 10.1 - suidperl isn't setuid - what's the right way to fix this?

On my SUSE 10.1 system, suidperl doesn't have its setuid bit set.
Normally this would be easy to fix -- just set it. But
/usr/bin/suidperl and /usr/bin/perl appear to be hardlinks to the same
file, so if I set the suid bit on /usr/bin/suidperl, *all* perl scripts
end up running as root -- definitely *not* what I want! I assume
there's some "right" way to do this I'm overlooking.
