 Replying to [comment:19 raimue@…]:
 > We should agree on one method (*_select or variants) and use it for all
 ports for which we provide multiple versions (python, ruby, perl).

 But is there any reason to have multiple versions for perl? Why not simply
 upgrade to perl 5.10? (For instance, Debian did this.)
