It should be pulled in:

/usr/ports/devel/autoconf > # make all-depends-list
/usr/ports/ports-mgmt/pkg
/usr/ports/devel/m4
/usr/ports/print/texinfo
/usr/ports/misc/help2man
/usr/ports/devel/p5-Locale-gettext
/usr/ports/devel/gettext-tools
/usr/ports/devel/libtextstyle
/usr/ports/converters/libiconv
/usr/ports/print/indexinfo
/usr/ports/devel/gettext-runtime
 >>> /usr/ports/lang/perl5.32
/usr/ports/devel/gmake
/usr/ports/devel/p5-Locale-libintl
/usr/ports/converters/p5-Text-Unidecode
/usr/ports/textproc/p5-Unicode-EastAsianWidth
/usr/ports/devel/autoconf-wrapper
