Hi,

It looks like the same problem I encountered with 5.20 under 10.3 (just 
one box). Links are not created during port building (with other than 
perl too). With perl, two links are missing under /usr/local/bin. 
Creating them manually allows for a successful building of a port that 
depends on perl.

If you can, look at my post from October 23rd (links not created by make 
install).

Regards,

Piotr
