#50103: perl5: using perl5 port group to create variants results in circular logic

Port: perl5 |

Comment (by mojca@…):
Unrelated, but weird: while doing some tests and compiling `perl5.16`, the
compilation failed with
{{{
error: use of undeclared identifier 'KERN_PROC_PATHNAME'
}}}
In the next attempt it ran just fine, so I'm slightly confused.
The above change seems to fix the problem of circular dependency, but I
would like your confirmation just in case. Thanks a lot for spotting this.
And another tiny request: can you please try to revbump all the `perl5.x`
ports locally and check if you notice any problems? We had a working perl
that I broke for a few hours, but some users upgraded exactly in that time
window, so we should revbump. I just want to avoid revbumping to a broken
version and risk breaking everyone's installation, not just the one of
those who were unlucky enough to upgrade at that time.
