Thanks!

Just the

PKG_OPTIONS.perl = -threads

in /etc/mk.conf and make update in the pkgsrc perl directory generated a 
multi-hour rebuild of about evrything in my machine!

But it solved the problem!

So now Apache starts with PERL enabled...

But when I try to open a .pl URL, I get :

"You don't have permission to access /index.pl on this server"... 
Strange... I can get php pages to work fine.

Any ideas of what I'm doin gwrong?
