lang/rust fails to build after upgrading Perl to 5.36

In my attempt to upgrade to Perl 5.36 several other ports were
affected and had to be rebuilt/reinstalled.  One of these was
lang/rust -- which failed to build (I can send error strings).

However, I decided to try downloading the lang/rust package
and work around the build-from-source problems I was having.

I did that, and look what happened (note the version of Perl):

 =*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=

unix# pwd
/usr/ports 
unix# pkg install lang/rust

        rust: 1.72.0

Number of packages to be installed: 2

The process will require 1 GiB more space.
144 MiB to be downloaded.

Proceed with this action? [y/N]: N

 =*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=

This defeats updating Perl from 5.34 to 5.36 -- what am I to do?
