Hi and thanks Kevin!

Im using Perl 5.005_03 (perl -v) on FBSD4.10.
I thought that Perl was part of the base system.
Is it possible to upgrade my installation, to
Perl 5.8.x, via ports?

Yes it was a full portupgrade. Did not saw the UPDATING
notes on Perl. Had some problem with PHP5 and must have
overlooked everything else.

TIA & BR > Pelle
