Of Perl and "h2ph"

In Perl it may be necessary to run "h2ph" to convert C *.h files into the
equivalent *.ph files e.g. when doing low-level stuff such as ioctl().
I can understand having to do this if one is installing Perl from sources
to a new platform, but should this not be part of the Perl port to
MacPorts?
I didn't seem to require it on the FreeBSD port, and yes, I'm gonna be
comparing the two a lot as I bring a lot of my FreeBSD stuff over to the
Mac as well... (And I won't even start on the Penguin breakage.)
