We need to change the mod_perl2 port into a p5-mod_perl2 port that has subports for each perl version.

Until we do, getting ports that use mod_perl2's perl modules (like p5-libapreq2) to work with it is cumbersome.

The process should be:

* install perl5 with a variant that corresponds to the perl version you want to use
* forcibly rebuild mod_perl2 from source (i.e. "sudo port -ns upgrade --force mod_perl2") or if you have not yet installed mod_perl2, install it from source (i.e. "sudo port -s install mod_perl2")
* install the p5-libapreq2 subport for the perl version you want to use
