If you set PERL_PORT, and PERL_VERSION doesn't get spammed into the
correct make.conf (see rest of thread), then dependent ports see the
default PERL_LEVEL and PERL_VERSION.

# grep "PERL" /etc/make.conf
PERL_PORT=perl5.16

# cd /ports/mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin/

# make -V PERL_LEVEL
501404
# make -V PERL_VERSION
5.14.4
