If it's a problem in the upstream source (it currently looks like it
to me), can I assume whoever handles the pr will contact the author of
the module?

I did a grep for p5-Digest-MD5 in /usr/pkgsrc/*/*/Makefile and grepped
corresponding source for "MD5".
It looks like the following are ok (they have references to Digest::MD5):
databases/p5-perl-ldap
security/p5-Crypt-RSA
textproc/p5-Convert-ASCII-Armour
textproc/p5-Convert-PEM
www/p5-libwww
The following only mention MD5 (Makefile.PLs were checked too):
security/p5-Crypt-CBC
www/p5-Apache-Session
You seem to have taken care of comms/pilotmgr already ;-)
