I don't see this build problem when I build the package:

It looks like in your case, the build tries to descend into
work/Net-LibIDN/ and looks for a Makefile there directly.
However, that can't be done for perl module packages, the rules
for building are in ../../lang/perl5/module.mk.  In the default
case of the module type being unspecified, it defaults to
"MakeMaker", and it does "perl Makefile.PL", to create Makefile
as part of the "configure" stage, and the package can then be
built.
