+ AUTHOR: pgollucci@FreeBSD.org
+
+ lang/perl5.8 and lang/perl5.10 have been removed since they've
+ been EOL upstream for 3yrs and 2yrs respectively. The default
+ of lang/perl5.12 has not changed (yet). Conditional checks for
+ perl < 5.12 have been removed. UNLESS you have PERL_VERSION=5.8.x
+ or PERL_VERSION=5.10.x in /etc/make.conf you need take no action.
+ If you do, you will been to recompile all perl dependant ports after
+ updating your ports/ tree. Please see entry 20110517 for help.
