Perl script installation

I am updating the port for a perl script that depends on
Time::ParseDate.  When I installed the port for the first time on a
system, it installed it's dependency first, then successfully installed
itself.  Though, when I tried to run it, it couldn't find
Time::ParseDate because that module was installed under the directory
for 5.8.7, not 5.6.2 which is the version of the standard perl
executable.  I believe both Time::ParseDate can run under 5.6.2 and
dirvish can run under 5.8.7 without any problems, but how do I check
when version I need or force dependencies to be installed for a certain
system?  Is this just a problem with the system I'm testing on or do I
need to worry about other people having problems with it?
