The OP is asking about circumventing a bug in portmanager that
causes it to incorrectly think that lang/perl5.8 (5.8.7) built
-DWITH_THREADS, (PKGNAME "perl-threaded-5.8.7" because
PKGNAMESUFFIX=-threaded), is older than lang/perl5.8 (5.8.7) built
without threads (PKGNAME "perl-5.8.7" because PKGNAMESUFFIX=).
