New description:

 '''port install perl5 -perl5_16 +perl5_22'''

 seems to work (perl executables linked to perl5.22 partners)

 but then:

 '''port deps perl5'''
 =>
 {{{
 Full Name: perl5 @5.16.3_0+perl5_16
 Library Dependencies: perl5.16
 }}}

Comment:

 This is behaving correctly. "port deps perl5" shows the dependencies of
 the perl5 port '''in its default configuration''', which currently means
 with the +perl5_16 variant. You have installed the port with the +perl5_22
 variant, so if you would like to see the dependencies of that variant, you
 need to run "port deps perl5 +perl5_22".

 If you have further questions about using macports, please write to the
 macports-users mailing list.
