 Perl 5.14 has its own IPv6 support.  I suspect it is conflict with
 p5-IO-Socket-INET6.

No, a nice thing about this port is that it's self contained (the only
two optional depends, for TLS, are p5-IO-Socket-SSL and p5-Crypt-SSLeay).

The port is at the latest version (released in 2009, h).
Since perl 5.14 is not the default, I marked it broken for now and
ping upstream to see if there's still any active development.
I don't intend to maintain this as a fork ; anyone wanting to take over
maintainership has just to ping me.

 I found other compatibility issue that 5.14 deesn't has sv_undef,
 sv_yes nor sv_no, anymore.  It causes that cyrus-imapd doesn't build
 with 5.14.  Perhaps, there are more ports which are affected by this
 issue.

Any way to detect this at build time? We could od a run on pointy if
that's the case, and at least have a list of problems.

Okay, net/sendemail itself doesn't depend on p5-IO-Socket-INET6,
directly.  However, it seems that p5-IO-Socket-SSL has an option to
enable IPv6 support which is off by default.  When an IPv6 option is
enabled, p5-IO-Socket-SSL depends on p5-IO-Socket-INET6.

/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.14.0/IO/Socket/INET6.pm imports
sockaddr_in6() from Socket6.  However, 5.14 has sockaddr_in6() in
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.14.0/mach/Socket.pm.  It seems to me that
IO::Socket::INET6 has to import sockaddr_in6() conditionally, now.

I agreed.  5.14 is not the default.

 sv_yes nor sv_no, anymore.  It causes that cyrus-imapd doesn't build

Yes, I found this at build time.  I committed the workaround for
cyrus-imapd23 and cyrus-imapd24, already.
