I did however use this method of defining the variable with sed and it worked fine.
Apologies, I forgot to set $num in my example:

Code:
$ text='QIl reçoit 5 000 $ à la livraison. 5 000 $?'
$ num=1
$ echo '((1)) ((2))' > temp.tmp
$ perl -i -CA -pne 'my $val='\'"${text}"\''; s/\(\('"${num}"'\)\)/$val/' temp.tmp
$ file -i temp.tmp
temp.tmp: text/plain; charset=utf-8
$ cat temp.tmp
QIl reçoit 5 000 $ à la livraison. 5 000 $? ((2))
