There's a "corelist" program included with Perl which can answer these
questions:
pyanfar:20005 Z$ corelist DB_File
DB_File was first released with perl 5
pyanfar:20006 Z$ corelist Pod::Parser
Pod::Parser was first released with perl v5.6.0
pyanfar:20007 Z$ corelist Test::More
Test::More was first released with perl v5.6.2
We don't package perls as old as 5.6 any more, so you can assume these are
all installed with perl. We also don't mangle the perl core like certain
Linux distributions do, so if it's in core perl then it's in our perl ports.

The usual way: file a ticket on Trac with the new Portfile (or diffs from
the old if appropriate) and any additional files needed.
