1. Fix devel/automake too (by replacing /usr/bin/perl with ${PERL})
2. Create symlinks unconditionally in perl port and drop USE_PERL option
/usr/bin is in LOCALBASE which may be read only.
Ok, but if so most part of ports tree will not build on such systems,
because automake tools (aclocal in particular) calling /usr/bin/perl.
The option should remain on by default due to the majority use case,
but elimination the option is a bad idea. Users should not have to
hack ports to use a readonly LOCALBASE.
Last time I installed perl with /usr/bin readonly (ezjail) it failed
silently to create the symlink so there is really no reason to switch
this option off.
That's why, I would also go for option 2/
If you have a readonly /usr/bin, it is the job of your administrator
(that'd be you!) to create the symlink.
