 OK, with just these perl modules installed:=20
 /var/db/pkg/p5-BerkeleyDB-0.51:
 /var/db/pkg/p5-Digest-HMAC-1.03:
 /var/db/pkg/p5-IO-Multiplex-1.13:
 /var/db/pkg/p5-IO-Socket-INET6-2.69:
 /var/db/pkg/p5-IO-stringy-2.110:
 /var/db/pkg/p5-Net-DNS-0.72:
 /var/db/pkg/p5-Net-Server-2.007:
 /var/db/pkg/p5-Parse-Syslog-1.10:
 /var/db/pkg/p5-Socket6-0.23:
 
 postgrey does what it should.=20
 
 But as you might imagine, that's not really very useful. I suppose the =
 best way to unearth the bug is to install all the old ports, one at a =
 time, and check to see if/when postgrey loses its mind again.=20
