This issue has been around for a long time. It seems to affect intltool,
though there may be one or more other less frequently used ports that it
also hits.

* It only happens after a Perl update
* I have confirmed that all p5-XML-Parser has been updated after perl
* After this error, re-installing p5-XML-Parser will allow intltool to
configure, build and install with no problems
* It does not happen on all systems

My guess is that some other port steps on something used by XML::Parser,
but I have not tracked down just what and, since I only have one system
remaining to update to perl-threaded-5.14.4, I'm not sure I will catch it,
though I'll try. I was hoping that pkgng would make this obvious as the use
of a "real" database will not allow duplicate files any longer, but it does
not seem to have done so to this point.
