It gets installed as part of perl 5.8.8 install
(at my end):

nakur# pkg_info -W /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/Errno.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/Errno.pm was installed by package 
perl-5.8.8_1

are you using a package? is your ports tree up to date and did you 
entirely reinstall it from there? (because it seems that a reinstall 
will update the freebsd version as well)..
