You're right:

#!/usr/bin/perl

Since when did the port stop creating a link to /usr/bin/perl? I recall 
a discussion on ports about whether or not to keep creating the link, 
and IIRC the conclusion was that too many things break without the link.

The latest mention of perl in UPDATING is from February last year.

Thanks, Erik
