That command lists ackmate for me. Note however that those patterns are
regexes, so you really want:

port echo depends:'perl5\.16' or depends:'p5\.16-.*'

And since regexes are unanchored by default, the .* is technically
redundant.

Sorting by maintainer:

port info --line --index --name --maintainer depends:'perl5\.16' or
depends:'p5\.16-' | sort
