that's not new. A perl upgrade was always painful.
I suggest to use poudriere to build yours packages and pkgng to
manage them. As poudriere produces a consistent set of packages,
an upgrade is painless (pkg upgrade -f) and you can deploy them on
several machines.

In fact poudriere and pkg saved me :)
