>Description:
	pkgsrc/net/gnetcat depends on perl, but doesn't actually make
	any use of perl.

	The only place where perl is ever used is if you run 
	.../doc/texi2pod.pl to convert doc/netcat.texi -> doc/netcat.pod 
	- which isn't done in a normal build as netcat.pod is already 
	included in the source package.

>How-To-Repeat:
	pkg_delete perl, try to install net/gnetcat
