Could you tell me what this changes, exactly? I need to make certain that /usr/bin/perl stays at its current version (5.005_03). Does this simply update /etc/make.conf?
I looked for a man page, but don't see it.
Its a regular perl script, just open it up in your favorite text editor and read it. As far as I know (without reading over the source carefully) it just changes a few symlinks and changes a line in make.conf so that when you rebuild the world it will use the new perl.
