Not really - it's more useful to know that they're modules for
networking, or for security, etc. than it is to know that they're perl
modules (that's obvious from the name).  If you really want an
enormous list of all perl5 modules in the ports tree, you can browse
the perl5 virtual category using www.freebsd.org/ports.
