Exactly how many I don't yet know, but they mostly appear to be using the existence of the /usr/bin/perl file as a check for whether perl support is desired. Some of them are failing during configure but don't appear to actually require perl for the build (i.e. they were building fine with the wrapper but without the perl package installed, suggesting they don't actually invoke perl). http://bento.freebsd.org/errorlogs/5-latest/cvsd-0.9.14.log http://bento.freebsd.org/errorlogs/5-latest/ruboard-1.2.1_1.log http://bento.freebsd.org/errorlogs/5-latest/autoconf213-2.13.000227_5.log These will shortly be moving to the 5-full directory (edit URL accordingly).
