Well the problem has obviously nothing to do with MailScanner.  The culprit
is the patch-Makefile.PL from databases/p5-DBI/files/ directory.  This file
was removed during the update of p5-DBI to 0.51 two month ago.

Since you still have the file, it would appear that the method you used to
update the ports collection is suspect - the port was updated but the files
that should have been removed weren't.

Please make sure you have up to date - and *consustent* ports collection,
then try again (do a make clean first).
