removing useless dependencies



Quite a lot of perl packages have dependencies like these:

{perl>=5.10.1,p5-Test-Simple>=0.88}

i.e. either a "new enough" perl, or the separate package.

Since pkgsrc forces a "new enough" perl anyway, i.e., always the
latest, I don't see much point in maintaining these. Does anyone else?

If not, I suggest removing them.
