or security advisory, you will very likely find joy.

ppy when you first
fire it up on an old box where a lot of manual ports management has
already occurred, and cleaning up a messed package database is
probably the least fun aspect of portupgrade. The best time to learn
it might be the next time you do a clean install of say, 6.1.

Anyone else have clues? Since it's easily repeatable in different
environments, maybe send-pr it as a demonstrable bug?

Did you upgrade perl using the ports collection?
If so, did you run the provided perl-after-upgrade script?
If not, can you do that and test again?
See ports/UPDATING for more information on upgrading perl.

I think that while there have been some outspoken critics of the 5.x
branch, and there continue to be some minor rough spots, it is
generally a very good system.
