I did portmaster perl-5.8.8_1 and then perl-after-upgrade and perl-after-upgrade -f. Then I tried to restart spamassassin and amavisd - both end with some error wich were fixed by reinstalling these ports by portmaster too. Same it is for autoconf and other tools - they are not working till reinstall. Miroslav Lachman
