I did an upgrade of my ports and I got some errors regarding Perl modules.  
The system asked my to remove BSDPAN which I did.  Later I discovered I had 
other problems updating certain ports because of missing Perl parts.  This 
is part of the problem:

$ perldoc BSDPAN
Can't locate File/Spec.pm in @INC (@INC contains: 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/mach 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl

How do I fix up my Perl installation?

Thank you very much.
