 How is perllocal.pod file supposed to be installed?
 Some packages prevent its installation.
 Some install it.
 And in that case, if there is another package that wants to install it
 there will be a conflict.
 For example, ossp-uuid installs it which makes the gscan2pdf port that is
 in a PR fail because of conflict on this file.
 Should this file never be installed? If this is the case, could the
 portgroup perl5 manage this instead of having each package write this
 removal in the portfile?
