>Description:
When I tried to update perl-5.8.9_1 "make install" exited with an error message that "/usr/ports/lang/perl5.8/work/BSDPAN-5.8.9" could not be found. 
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/lang/perl5.8 && make install clean
>Fix:
This directory doesn't exist indeed but "/usr/ports/lang/perl5.8/work/BSDPAN-5.8.9_1" does, so I think it's just a Makefile-Bug. I created a symlink BSDPAN-5.8.9 -> BSDPAN-5.8.9_1 and the installation worked.
