--- Comment #1 from Joseph Mingrone <jrm at freebsd.org> ---
I am able to reproduce this.

% cd / && ls -lh home

% PORTSDIR=/home/jrm/scm/freebsd/freebsd-ports.svn make -C

Stop.

After applying the patch in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D11934:

% PORTSDIR=/home/jrm/scm/freebsd/freebsd-ports.svn make -C
/home/jrm/scm/freebsd/freebsd-ports.svn/lang/perl5.26 install

      This is *NOT* the DEFAULT perl version

It will *NOT* install /usr/local/bin/perl

It will *ONLY* install /usr/local/bin/perl5.26.0

The default Perl version currently is 5.24.

If you want to use this version as the default,
stop the build now, add this line to your
/etc/make.conf, and then restart the build.

DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=perl5=5.26
