You were in fact just told why.

Spelling it out more explicitly:  you installed a module into
/opt/local/bin/perl5.12.  (MacPorts does not install modules into system
programs, including the system Perl.)

So, you have a port bug:  it needs to be changed to invoke the MacPorts
perl.  The workaround is "sudo port install perl5 +perl5_12", which will
install /opt/local/bin/perl pointing to /opt/local/bin/perl5.12.
