Progress:

At least this one isn't specific to spec2k, but is perl itself (having library tests looking into specific locations).
I assume you are not allowed to patch the build system to work around these. So maybe instead of falling back to an older release, maybe create a multiarch-compat package having symlinks for all these moved files in the old places? Yes, it's a hack, and maybe such a package would only live in a PPA.
