Ok, fine. Will it help? I'm just guessing, I don't have access to a 5.0 at 
this time. Does 5.0 have a /usr/lib/libperl.so installed?

If not, none of the lang/perl* ports install any libperl.so shared library, 
so I guess the port simply will not work on 5.0 unless someone create a 
libperl.so port? Or is there something else failing?
