I didn't think wget depended on amy perl (it certainly isn't listed  
in the portfile)

Why did you install Pod::Man in /usr/local?

Well, as you can see from the error above, macports' perl isn't  
searching /usr/local (since the error shows you @INC)

It looks like pod2man is your culprit, but on my system:

% port provides /opt/local/bin/pod2man
/opt/local/bin/pod2man is provided by: perl5.8
% port provides /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Pod/Man.pm
/opt/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Pod/Man.pm is provided by: perl5.8

Maybe you need to uninstall/reinstall the perl port?
