It's simply untested with the perl update, and there were significant 
pkgsrc changes to the perl package which made it necessary to "re-port" 
the package to use the existing pkgviews implementation.  If you can 
figure out how to integrate it into the new perl package, I encourage 
you to submit patches for it.  I don't have the resources to undertake it.
