I've read all the messages in this thread, but I'm still unclear -- are we talking about building the "miniperl" that Perl already creates during the build process?  If not, the minimal perl for building the FreeBSD kernel should have a different name, like:

        smallperl
        modestperl
        tightperl
        midgetperl
        petiteperl
or something similar.  I see much potential for confusion if "miniperl" means different Perl builds in different contexts.
