It seems that the PLIST handling is broken for the perl5 package. The
PLIST includes no files from .packlist.

This appears to be because the code to implement that was moved to
module.mk. The Makefile for the perl package itself doesn't include
module.mk.

Adding the following lines seemed to help:

PERL5_CONFIGURE= no
.include "module.mk"

Could someone more familiar with the perl pkg please take a look at this?
