Fix sysutils/cronolog

The port's master-site is not merely down, it has been taken-over by a
squatter! There were also no new releases since 2002.

Considering portmgr@'s usual eagerness to declare such ports "broken" and/or
"obsolete", one can be forgiven for suspecting, some port-managers are more
equal than others.

Anyway, attached is the patch for the port -- the two proposed master-sites
host the same tar-ball we know about (checksum didn't change), and the
patch-site hosts the patch-file without MSDOS line-endings simplifying the
processing.

A special setting had to be added to configure's environment to allow passing
QA-tests on systems, where there is /usr/bin/perl (symlink).

The proposed patch-site has some other patches, some of which might be useful
too. Adding them would require bumping PORTVERSION, however, whereas this fix
simply fixes the port.

Please, commit or allow me to. Thank you.
