That would be /etc/make.conf -- the PERL_VER and PERL_VERSION
variables ultimately control this behaviour.  Set these correctly in
/etc/make.conf by re-running "use.perl port".

However, the values in make.conf only have an effect at compile time,
so if you want all of your perl modules to live under
/usr/local/lib/perl5/{,site_perl/}5.8.2 then you're going to have to
reinstall all of the ports that put files into %%SITE_PERL%% as well
as installing the updated version of perl.

        Cheers,

        Matthew
