 * The big problem is that after every minor perl5 update (like v...02 ->
 * v...03) every port which have #!${PERL5} sed-substituted in the perl
 * script should be reinstalled! 

 * ! PERL5=			/usr/bin/perl${PERL_VERSION}
 * ! PERL5=			${LOCALBASE}/bin/perl${PERL_VERSION}

 * ! PERL5=                  /usr/bin/perl5
 * ! PERL5=                  ${LOCALBASE}/bin/perl5

I remember there were some arguments for and against it last time this
was proposed (for one thing, we *don't* want to be invoking
perl5.00502 if the port written for perl5.00503 installs manpages).

Maybe we should just add a new variable for script substitutions (what
was the name, ${PERL5_SHORT})?
