For the record (in case somebody googles this thread in six months), I was
able to solve this problem by adding the following to the pkg-deinstall
script:
if [ "$2" != "POST-DEINSTALL" ]; then
exit 0
fi
So, the script, in toto, now is:
#!/bin/sh
# Since pkg-plist prepends PREFIX to SITE_PERL,
# we can't remove this file in the normal way
if [ "$2" != "POST-DEINSTALL" ]; then
exit 0
fi
/bin/rm %%SITE_PERL%%/mach/IP4.pm
And the perl module is removed without errors.
