I just updated to p5-News-Newsrc-1.08 via ports from the previous version.
After some odd problems with another program, I tracked the source of the
problem as being the first line in Newsrc.pm, which is

use 5.6.0;

Now in and of itself this is fairly reasonable, since one has to keep up
with software if one is going to change things. My problem is that the
port buids with FreeBSD's built-in perl (5.005_03) without error or
warning and installs as

/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/News/Newsrc.pm
