Comment (by mojca@…):

 Perl 5.12 came from autoreconf, so it's a false alarm. I didn't try the
 functionality, but the port looks OK to me. I attached the Portfile with
 some very minor modifications compared to Xeron's upload. I removed some
 runtime and build dependencies because they are general dependencies
 already. Please let me know if I got some of those changes wrong (if I
 misunderstood the logic).

 I added a line with an explicit Perl version and that seems to work except
 that `p${perl5.major}-scalar-list-utils` seems like an optional dependency
 (I leave it up to you to figure that out).

 I commented out the elevated privileges. Given that the testsuite doesn't
 work 100% anyawy, it's safer to leave them uncommented for now. (I didn't
 try to understand why elevated privileges are needed.)

 Just two questions left from my part:
   * should `xeron.oskom` be a co-maintainer?
   * Eric, given that you are the future (co-)maintainer, can you please
 confirm the changes?

 Once the port is committed, I would suggest opening a ticket for the
 failed tests.
