	Given that MP installs (most) modules into vendor_perl,
I think the order should be:

	site, vendor, then perl base/core.

	I like the line(s) you have for showing the directory ordering
in the patch, I'll incorporate those.

	I have a diff that does this, still testing.  I may
have a fix/hack for the man page problem as well, more details
if it pans out.


	Why did you have p5-test-simple install into site_perl
instead of vendor_perl (given that the general default for 
macports p5-* is to install into vendor_perl)?
