 For me this did not work off the bat, but if I cleaned my perl5.12 install
 it then fixed the issue for me.

 So, if perl5.12 still fails to build for you after trying the above,
 here's one more process to try:
 {{{
 sudo port -f deactivate libstdcxx
 sudo port clean perl5.12
 sudo port upgrade perl5.12
 sudo port activate libstdcxx
 }}}
