Comment:

 Sorry, I didn't explain this very well at all.

 I was installing `git-core +svn`, which is dependent on `p5.12-svn-
 simple`, which is dependent on `subversion-perlbindings`, which is
 dependent on `perl5`. Since I have `perl5 +perl5_14` installed,
 `subversion-perlbindings` gets installed under Perl 5.14. Then `p5.12-svn-
 simple` can't find the Subversion bindings.

 Switching to `perl5 +perl5_12` temporarily is an easy fix, but this seems
 clumsy. Is there a reason that `subversion-perlbindings` doesn't have
 subports so it can be installed correctly in dependency chains such as
 this, without fiddling with the variant of `perl5`? For instance, `p5.12
 -svn-simple` would be dependent on `p5.12-subversion-bindings` or
 something, and that would install under Perl 5.12 regardless of what
 `perl5` variant is present.
