I believe that by our conventions it should be"
PORTNAME=3D       p5-CIF-Client

it's much easier to deal with perl version updates when you can just
'portmanager p5-'. Currently I use about 100 perl ports and only two
fail to follow this convention and they are top-level apps that happen
to be written in perl (net-snmp and dvd::rip).
