lang/perl-5.16: fails to compile because of missing distinfo/use.perl

[Andrej Zverev]

Hello, it's something wrong with ports tree.
Usually distinfo placed /usr/ports/lang/perl5.16/distinfo, but in your
case it wrong.
Same goes for use.perl which must seat in
/usr/ports/lang/perl5.16/files/use.perl

Please try remove whole tree (rm -rf /usr/ports as example) and
checkout from git again (but using svn and portsnap would be
preferable)
