Huh, can we get more info? are you using plperl or plperlu?  A
complete testcase would also help.

It works for me:
=3D> SELECT version();
                                                    version

=3D> create or replace function perl_shared() returns void as $$
elog(INFO, $_SHARED{'stuff'});
$_SHARED{'stuff'} =3D '1';
for my $k (keys %_SHARED)
{
    elog(INFO, $k);
}
$$ language plperl;

=3D> select perl_shared();
