>Description:
	the mod_perl2 port uses wrong mechanism for perl dependancy 
	and so never builds on 4.X systems. It checks the PERL_LEVEL 
	variable, which apparently contains the Systems native perl 
	version lvevel, and therefore always fails, even if perl5.6.1
	is installed.

call1# pkg_info -aI | grep perl
perl-5.6.1_15       Practical Extraction and Report Language
call1# pwd
/usr/ports/www/mod_perl2
call1# make
===>  mod_perl2-1.99r12_1 requires perl 5.6.x or later. Install lang/perl5 then try again.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
	cd /usr/ports/lang/perl5 && make all install clean
	cd /usr/ports/www/mod_perl2 && make all install
>Fix:
