Hello,

I'm trying to find out, which Ports depend on perl but fail to report
that. So far, I have a list of 361 ports, that _might_ not build, when perl
is missing. BUT there are enough knobs, that may require perl anyway.

How can I find out, which USE_* Vars pull in perl?
For example, if a port depends on Gnome (USE_GNOME), does that mean that
perl is installed? (is gnome dependend on perl?)

Does X need perl? (USE_XLIB, USE_X_PREFIX)

Or should all ports using stuff like this
        @${PERL} -pi -e 's|-lpthread|${PTHREAD_LIBS}|g ; \
                 s|DATADIRNAME=lib|DATADIRNAME=share|g' ${WRKSRC}/configure
get converted to USE_REINPLACE/${REINPLACE_CMD}?
