You have likely found a bug (ports that need perl should almost always be OK 
with either perl 5.10 or 5.8 being installed and shouldn't need the other one).

I don't know of a better way of figuring out which port is causing you the 
problem other than manually.

Take the output of 'port outdated' and search for the one that is pulling in 
perl5.8 (you could take half of the list and try to upgrade it and keep cutting 
it in half until you find the port causing the problem - or you could just 
upgrade the ports one at a time until you find the culprit).

you probably also want to make sure you have perl5 +perl5_10 installed.
