No, I mean:
-% perl -e 'foreach (@INC) { print "$_\n"}'
/usr/libdata/perl/5.00503/mach
/usr/libdata/perl/5.00503
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-freebsd
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005
.
With LOCALBASE set to /usr/pkg, and having perl ports going in there
instead of /usr/local, perl will no longer detect them.

This is what I'm refering to. Yes, I can set PERL5LIB and so, but Perl
ignores this in both taint mode and when suid, relying instead on the
compiled-in @INC. This isn't desirable behaviour, since /usr/pkg is
just as trustworthy as /usr/local.
