No, I believe this is the wrong way to go.  I've outlined my plan in the 
slides found here:

	http://www.pkgsrccon.org/2005/slides/jlam/diy-pkgsrc.html

and it's more fully described in the PR database at:

	http://www.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=29404

With these changes, the user can simply use the CPAN module to install 
and deinstall perl modules independently of pkgsrc.  I am not in favor 
of automatically generating perl module packages through CPAN since the 
results are not consistently predictable and thus are not usable as 
dependencies.
