Hello,

I was wondering how to inspect variables in a port file.  Specifically, I want 
to apply a patch conditionally if perl is version 5.10.0.  

I'm trying something like 

if { ${configure.perl} eq "/usr/bin/perl" && [vercmp ${perl5.version} 5.10.0] < 
0 } {
    patchfiles-append patch-man_Makefile.in.diff
}

in the Portfile. This doesn't work and I would like to inspect configure.perl 
and perl5.version to see what they are.  Is there any way to do this?  I'm 
looking for a solution like using printf in c, or echo in a shell script.

Thanks

Chris Gorman
