you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades.

+
+ The THREADS option has been enabled by default in all Perl. If you're using
+ binary packages you need to do :
+
+ # pkg install -Rf perl5
+
+ If you're not using binary packages, and want to switch from non threaded
+ Perl to threaded Perl, you need to recompile and reinstall most ports
+ depending on Perl. Supposing you have Perl 5.16, you would do:
+
+ Portupgrade users:
+ 0) Fix pkgdb.db (for safety):
+ pkgdb -Ff
+
+ 1) Change the option in lang/perl5.16:
+ make -C /usr/ports/lang/perl5.16 config
+
+ 2) Reinstall everything that depends on Perl:
+ portupgrade -fr lang/perl5.16
+
+ Portmaster users:
+ 1) Change the option in lang/perl5.16:
+ make -C /usr/ports/lang/perl5.16 config
+
+ 2) Reinstall everything that depends on Perl:
+ portmaster -r perl5-
+
+ Note: The installed Perl package was named perl and is now named perl5, if
+ you have not updated your installation in a long time, you may need to
+ use "perl-" here.
