When I was told that it was already available in "all versions of Perl that FreeBSD cares about" I wondered whether I had been mistaken in adding it. It's been updated a couple of times since but I still wonder. Maybe the version in this port has enhancements beyond the versions included in the main Perl port or base system Perl that make it worthwhile? -- Trevor Johnson
