Yup. 'our' is a new keyword introduced in perl 5.6.x -- your version
of perl is too old to run this software.  Your best bet is to install
a more recent version of perl from the ports (perl-5.8.2 recommended).
Make sure you run:

    # use.perl port

and then that you reinstall all perl modules so that the new perl can
find them.

        Cheers,
