I would probably wait and not upgrade those packages until after the
whole perl thing is sorted out. If you upgrade now there is a good
chance that some of your software will stop working.
Alternatively you could switch perl5 to use the perl5_8 variant; or
upgrade it as is (which will switch to perl5.12) and then recompile
all of your p5-* ports.
