Thanks for the reply Kris,

I actually found it when I was reading the changelog at 
http://www.freshports.org/lang/perl5.8/  and I see the "Fix the workings 
of ENABLE_SUIDPERL knob."

IMO This tidbit really *should* be in one of the the pkg-* files because 
line 40 of the Makefile is not the first place people look...

Also, did the port install the broken symlink, and if so why?
