	No, just the parts of the base that rely on perl. :)

	The question isn't what we allow the users to use (of course),
it's about what we support in the ports tree. Given that (as far as I
know) csh-derived shells can also do this without help, and this
functionality is already provided by another program in ports, this port
is redundant, and probably shouldn't be included.
