I believe this has been fixed now, after my last commit to those exact
files.  Thanks for noticing this and mailing Mark and the list though.

I'm not sure about MFC'ing this, since 4.X installations have Perl in
the FreeBSD base-system.  I don't have a -STABLE installation nearby,
but if anyone feels like testing the changes I made to 5.0 and
backporting them to 4.X, I do not have any sort of objection.

I would only suggest waiting at fair period for this to settle in,
since I know of some cases that the style of the scripts I wrote might
need fixing.  If anyone wants to MFC the changes, please wait at least
a few weeks before committing anything to STABLE.  There isn't any
compelling reason why these should be merged *now*.
