Having updated my copy of perl beyond what FreeBSD expects me to have, I
use the following values when building ports using perl:
PERL_VERSION= 5.6.1
PERL_VER= 5.6.1
PERL_ARCH= i386-freebsd
You can set these on the command line, which gets tedious. I've been in
the habit of patching bsd.port.mk so it gets these right, but it looks
like that's probably not necessary any more. It looks like you should be
able to just set these in /etc/make.conf
