tv d6c0d5882c * Make perl stop installing anything in the man3 directory. It's starting
to install things like "open.3" and "lib.3" which confuse users.  Perl
  ships with a documentation tool, "perldoc", for this purpose; create a
  MESSAGE indicating that it should be used instead.  (Perl still installs
  command line program manual pages in man1.)

* Integrate bsd.perl.mk into the perl5-base build where it should have been
  from the beginning.  The separate perl-mk pkg makes binary packages of
  perl-mk completely useless[*].  Older perl builders will not break, since
  <bsd.pkg.mk> contains fallback definitions that are evaluated at pkg
  build time.

=====

[*] bsd.perl.mk is tightly bound to the version of perl that is installed.
    The version name "perl-mk-1.1" is completely useless as a binary pkg,
    since keeping multiple binary versions of perl on a FTP server means
    that one of the perl-mk's will get clobbered.

    However, putting the current pkgsrc PERL5_DIST_VERS in the perl-mk pkg
    is also a problem, because that doesn't necessarily reflect the
    installed version of perl.  Snarfing the installed version at perl-mk
    build time would be even uglier, since you could not then walk the tree
    without perl being installed.

    The cleanest solution is to integrate bsd.perl.mk into the perl5-base
    pkg, and let those who have not upgraded perl yet use the runtime
    definitions in <bsd.pkg.mk>.
