Comment(by markd@…):

 Not sure what is the best way to handle this.  Looks like these are the
 ones that depend on it.  I maintain 3 out of the 7.  I would think
 removing the 5-5 dependency from the ports would be the way to go.  It
 would cause problems for people with perl5.8.8 that try to install them,
 but I suspect people who have not used those ports yet for the most part
 will be on 5.8.9 before installing them now anyway.

 If that sounds acceptable I can modify my ports and make tickets on the
 others.
