Homebrew suggests looking into the PR for bumping po4a to version 0.62. This PR won't merge because 0.62 fails to build on Big Sur with the same error.
Root cause
The cpan module Term::ReadKey will not build with the system perl (5.28) on Big Sur. Switching to Homebrew perl (5.32) builds successfully after a minor patch a file in po4a. I have already made a PR on po4a to address this issue and will make a PR on homebrew-core shortly.
