I've been looking at OpenAMQ too but have yet to find the Perl bindings 
although I'm beginning to supsetc they may be autogenerated. From the 
docs

"The AMQP frames generators, in versions that produce C, Java, and Perl 
code respectively."

In 1.0 - no. "Applications login using plain text logins and passwords, 
using the SASL  PLAIN mechanism."

In 1.1 will have TLS/SSL encryption.

There are, of course, ways round this.

Just an aside, if you're thinking of using this for ultra reliable 
messaging then this 

http://wiki.openamq.org/package:switch-or-broker

might be worth reading.
