#50062: perl5.22 does not “replace” perl5.14!!
----------------------+--------------------------------

Component:  ports     |    Version:  2.3.4
 Keywords:            |       Port:
----------------------+--------------------------------
 I use Perl frequently in my development, and it is essential for me to
 compare different Perl versions from time to time.

 The following would be like saying that GTK+ 3 “replaces” GTK+ 2. There
 are significant changes among stable Perl releases that make it not always
 a simple matter to run the same code on a newer Perl version.

 Please restore the ability to install stable Perl versions from 5.8
 onward?? Thank you!
