I think your patch for p5-File-Temp:

.if ${PERL_LEVEL} > 500800
IGNORE=	"This module is already included in perl 5.8.x and later."
.endif

is senseless and detrimental.

All p5-ports with IGNORE like "This module is already included in perl 
X.Y.Z" should be cleaned up.

There is only one exception: if module on CPAN is completely obsolete 
and it's version in perl distribution is and will be undoubtedly newer.

Typical examples are devel/p5-IO and devel/p5-Devel-DProf.
