So can we please actually write it down somewhere? I've never
heard that we support that, but it's great if we do. The only
thing a ports developer needs is a comprehensible way to set
up a jail for testing purposes (comprehensible = without
trying to parse tinderbox/pointyhat source files himself).
Personally, I've never been able to build perl in a jail, I
hope that's just me.

Thanks!
