Since File::Temp is bart of the base perl now, your best bet is to:

    # pkg_delete -f p5-File-Temp
    # pkgdb -F
    # portupgrade -f lang/perl5.8

(ie. force a re-install of perl, so that it replaces any files deleted
as part of the p5-File-Temp package.)

That last step may not be necessary any more with very recent
versions of perl -- I believe that the perl port was changed so that
added modules wouldn't overwrite their equivalents bundled with the
core perl.  But I could be mistaken, and forcing a reinstall of perl
like that shuldn't have any nasty consequences other than taking up
some system resources to do the compilation.

     Cheers,

     Matthew
