I reported (within the last few days) such a problem with the port
against -STABLE, but it was fixed within hours.  4.8 uses the same
perl as 4.9 (5.005_03), so it's vastly unlikely you'll have any
problem with 4.8.  Of course, 4.8 isn't officially supported by the
latest ports, but I don't think you should have any problems.
