https://www.freshports.org/devel/autoconf reports that
perl is a dependency:

Build dependencies:
	=E2=80=A2 gm4 : devel/m4
	=E2=80=A2 help2man : misc/help2man
	=E2=80=A2 gmake : devel/gmake
	=E2=80=A2 makeinfo : print/texinfo
	=E2=80=A2 perl5>=3D5.28.r1<5.29 : lang/perl5.28
Runtime dependencies:
	=E2=80=A2 gm4 : devel/m4
	=E2=80=A2 autoconf-wrapper : devel/autoconf-wrapper
	=E2=80=A2 perl5>=3D5.28.r1<5.29 : lang/perl5.28
	=E2=80=A2 indexinfo : print/indexinfo

The Makefile has as shown by:

# grep perl /usr/ports/devel/autoconf/Makefile
USES=3D           gmake makeinfo perl5 tar:xz

This suggests that your system may be messed up
by having some indication that some lang/perl5.*
is installed, despite things being missing. That
would be consistent with your report of:

/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.30/perl/man/man1/perl.1.gz

existing. /usr/ports/UPDATING reports:

20200803:
  AFFECTS: users of lang/perl5*
  AUTHOR: mat@FreeBSD.org

  The default Perl version has been switched to Perl 5.32.  If you are =
using
  binary packages to upgrade your system, you do not have anything to =
do, pkg
  upgrade will do the right thing.  For the other people, follow the
  instructions in entry 20161103, it should still be the same.



What does:

pkg info perl5

report?

You may need to cause a delete of messed up material
and then a reinstall if that command reports that
perl5 is installed.


An example output for reference:
