I am not sure about this, but perhap you have to chmod the 'use.perl' program 
to  0755 and then run "use.perl port" manually. In any case, You do have to 
execute the 'perl-after-upgrade' program. Check the manual for further info 
on that program.

Just out of curiosity, after running portmanger, and assuming it does claim to 
have upgraded perl, what is the out put of 'perl -V'?

Ciao!
