Your perl-mk package may have been created when perl-5.00404 was
installed on your system, and when it created
${LOCALBASE}/share/mk/bsd.perl.mk, it may have defined all of the
PERL5_* variables to their perl-5.00404 values.  Please check if this
is the case by browsing through that file, or seeing if you've
predefined those values in your /etc/mk.conf.
