 Well, yeah.  I remember this file was popping into the picture before,
 but I forgot what port was the culprit.  On the other hand, I do
 believe, that the troublesome port was fixed and does not install
 patchlevel.h any more.  So in your case, I think, it is a leftover from
 some old package which is no longer listed in /var/db/pkg.
 
 Aaaaaaaanyway, I would suggest you to rm it and then to rebuild
 lang/perl5.8 - doing make clean in there first.
 
 This should help.  Please tell me whether it did, so I can close the PR.
