 Which is fine but doesn't answer any of the questions I have had about =
 this.=20
 
 =95	 Where does that older Socket file come into it?=20

 distinfo's modification date is May 17, 2011. The Makefile doesn't test =
 for a version. If so, why does it exist as a port? If it's only for =
 older versions, there's usually a test for that.=20
 =95	Is this just a namespace collision? Or cruft?=20
 =95	Where do the two file files differ? I could mount the cloned =
 copy of the filesystem that has the now-deleted perl tree on it and look =
 into it.=20
