Comment (by jlargentaye@…):

 (no logs attached above because I found the solution, but this was
 troublesome enough I figured I'd leave a trace for the next poor soul who
 encountered a similiar issue)

 This is because perl5 is actually a shim frontend to the specific
 versioned perl package, such as perl5.16 or perl5.18.

 Solved by doing cleaning perl5.16 directly, then reinstalling:

 `sudo port clean perl5.16`

 `sudo port install perl5`
