module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.

XBase module provides access to XBase (dBase, Fox*) dbf files. It also
handles memo files (dbt, fpt) and to certain extend index files (ndx, ntx,
mdx, idx and cdx). The DBD::XBase is a database driver for DBI and provides
simple SQL interface to reading and writing the database files. So this
package offers two ways of accessing your beloved data in dbf files: XBase.pm
and DBD::XBase. It is recommend using DBD::XBase and only resort to XBase.pm
if you need something special which is not supported by the DBI interface.
