It'll just force the rebuild of amavisd-new.

If you did a 'portugprade -fR amavisd-new' then you'll rebuild all of
amavisd-new's dependencies as well as amavisd-new itself.

You could do a 'portupgrade -f /var/db/pkg/p5*' to rebuild all the p5*
ports after you've rebuild perl if you like but that is probably only
necessary if you don't do 'portupgrade -fR'.
