This is actually the exact opposite of what I suggested.

My suggestion is that we put all of the necessary perl stuff in
bsd.perl.mk, and in bpm we make inclusion of bsd.perl.mk conditional on
USE_PERL5. Following that change do an -exp run and ask for help fixing
any ports that don't properly define USE_PERL5.

If bsd.perl.mk is going to be included unconditionally, what's the point
of having it in a separate file?
