I just noticed that the Tinderbox README specifies Perl 5.8 or later:


"Recent FreeBSD (development happens on -CURRENT only, but Tinderbox is
known to work on RELENG_6 and RELENG_7, too), Perl 5.8 or later
(lang/perl5.8), ..."


Should the port Makefile use:

USE_PERL5=      5.8+

instead of

WANT_PERL=	yes

to enforce that?
