#71388: help2man: Defaults to perl5.38

help2man was recently [changeset:1d6634e749a96b8a89b92a7fccc1fc6b1de36eb2
/macports-ports changed to default to perl5.38].
Can this be reverted, please? Everything in MacPorts should default to the
same perl version, so as to limit the number of different perls that
people have to have installed. The version of perl that ports should use
by default at this time is perl5.34, [https://github.com/macports
/macports-
ports/blob/6af9182ef1a7402481b3d7aa4b6fc9efc22a3c5c/_resources/port1.0/group/perl5-1.0.tcl#L13
per the perl5-1.0 portgroup]. Efforts to switch all ports to a newer perl
are blocked by #67830.
