new perl portgroup and svk

I was looking at fixing svk (which is nomaintainer now), but I ran into a little issue that I'm not sure how to fix.

The port name is 'svk', but it uses the perl portgroup.

I can update the dependencies to use ${perl5.major} like I've seen elsewhere, but since it sets name (to svk), things still don't work right.

I can set name before perl5.setup, but the portgroup expects the name to start with p5-, so when it creates the sub-ports, it can't create good names for them ([string range svk 3 end] doesn't really work as a rootname).

Is there something I'm missing?
