soooooo ... is the blob that gets added to make.conf after you install 
ports-mgmt/portconf in both make.conf files?

What you pasted looks fine. In your OP I noticed that there was nothing 
in packages/Latest, which I assumed meant that you're not using threaded 
perl and it just didn't show up because your find command specified 
perl-\*. But now I'm thinking that packages/Latest/perl is stale. Can 
you check it?

If it is stale, updating it should do the trick. If it's not, then there 
is more debugging to do.
