Is that not what the current “perl5” port does?
As I understand it, if you’re not fussy about which perl you want, you put in a
dep on “port:perl5” then spec your perl as ${prefix}/bin/perl5 and you’re done.
the perl5 port symlinks to the currently blessed perl.
It’s quite possible I don’t fully grasp the nuances, though.
