Hi,

Have you tried cvsuping from another source ?

Otherwise..

I'm guessing that this is version 4.x of FreeBSD based on the fact
it's using perl5. To bypass the building of perl in the base system
you can add the following to /etc/make.conf

NOPERL=        true

You can then build perl5.8 from ports afterwards and run use.perl ports.
