Can anybody tell me about /etc/make.conf in FreeBSD-5.2.1 ??

Yesterday I moved away /etc/make.conf that looked like this:
pcm2028.dti.supsi.ch# cat /etc/make.conf.back
# -- use.perl generated deltas -- #
# Created: Thu Nov 13 18:49:33 2003
# Setting to use base perl from ports:
PERL_VER=5.6.1
PERL_VERSION=5.6.1
PERL_ARCH=mach
NOPERL=yo
NO_PERL=yo
NO_PERL_WRAPPER=yo

then I went on on upgrading my ports system as described in
/usr/ports/UPDATING..

# portupgrade -o lang/perl5.8 -f perl-5.6.1_15
# portupgrade -f p5-\*

and all the rest till
# portupgrade -rf textproc/expat2

today, I went on to do make buildworld and checked /etc/make.conf
and guess what? It is again there:
pcm2028.dti.supsi.ch# cat /etc/make.conf
# -- use.perl generated deltas -- #
# Created: Tue Aug 10 16:35:06 2004
# Setting to use base perl from ports:
PERL_VER=5.6.1
PERL_VERSION=5.6.1
PERL_ARCH=mach
NOPERL=yo
NO_PERL=yo
NO_PERL_WRAPPER=yo

so.. I just upgraded perl to 5.8, but somehow in /etc/make.conf
it says to use version 5.6.1..

why?

pcm2028.dti.supsi.ch# which perl
/usr/bin/perl

pcm2028.dti.supsi.ch# perl --version
This is perl, v5.6.1 built for i386-freebsd
