Comment:

 All versions of perl < 5.16 are unsupported at this time and will
 hopefully be removed in the near future. In particular, intltool (the
 module that issues the error message) now only supports perl 5.16 and up.
 The default version of perl is now 5.16.

 Your usage of perl_select is irrelevant to this problem as it only selects
 the version of perl that is used if you run it from the command line not
 when ports are built.  I'd set it to the MacPorts (not Apple) version of
 perl that you normally use. But I suspect your have an invalid version of
 perl5 installed, possibly perl5 +perl5_12.

 To clean up your installation and validate that it works execute the
 following commands

 {{{
 sudo port install perl5 (this will install perl5.16 by default)
 sudo port deactivate p5.16-xml-parser (to test that it is correctly
 installed by the following commands)
 sudo port -n upgrade --force goffice08
 sudo port -n upgrade --force gnucash
 }}}

 If this works you can uninstall perl5 +perl5_12, perl5.12 and any p5.12-*
 ports you may have installed.
