I tried it without and it said it conflicted. It wanted to install perl5.16, without doing anything to 5.10.
Maybe it is because I already had PERL_VERSION=5.16.2 in /etc/make.conf?

I still have a couple of those to upgrade.
I can send pkg_info etc. and the commands I ran from the next server on Wednesday night.
