It looks like your /usr/pkgsrc/lang/perl might be out of syn -
	those PLIST references are for perl5.00401 whereas the
	installation is for 5.00404.

	I've build the perl5 package on i386 and sparc without problem...

	You can try supping the latest pkgsrc distribution to see if that
	just fixes it, or check the md5 checksums on your files to see if
	any differ from what I have - save the list below as md5.check2
	then run:

	    cd /usr/pkgsrc/lang/perl
	    md5 Makefile patches/patch* pkg/{C,D,P}* > md5.check
	    diff md5.check*
