When I use -p, I get (among a whole slew of packages to be updated):
[blocks B ] <dev-perl/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.05-r6 (from pkg dev-lang/perl-5.8.0-r12)
[blocks B ] <dev-perl/Test-Simple-0.47-r1 (from pkg dev-lang/perl-5.8.0-r12)
Gentoo decided to change how they handle perl[1]. You'll need to
unmerge the perl packages that show as blocks and then do the emerge -u
world again.
# emerge -pC ExtUtils-MakeMaker Test-Simple
# emerge -pu world
