why is perl being built even though port is installed and properly set in make.conf?

    Ok, it's being built as part of the boot-strap tools, but that just
    means that it is internal to the buildworld, it won't be installed
    from the buildworld (or at least shouldn't be).

    I'll test the patch for a few buildworld runs and commit it if no
    problems arise.

:> Yet right now perl is being built while doing make buildworld... 
:> Considering that perl is no longer being used for building kernel it 
:> could skip this part, right? Not to mention make.conf entries, of course.

:I posted this to bugs@ the other day, because buildworld failed on a machine
:without libperl in the base system, but received no response yet.
