Before, we had:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18
site_perl/perl_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18/mach
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/5.18/man/man3
Now we have:
site_perl : lib/perl5/site_perl
site_arch : lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.18
perl_man3 : lib/perl5/site_perl/man/man3
Modules without any .so will be installed at the same place regardless of the
Perl version, minimizing the upgrade when the major Perl version is changed.
It uses a version dependent directory for modules with compiled bits.
As PERL_ARCH is no longer needed in plists, it has been removed from
PLIST_SUB.
The USE_PERL5=fixpacklist keyword is removed, the .packlist file is now
always removed, as is perllocal.pod.
The old site_perl and site_perl/arch directories have been kept in the
default Perl @INC for all Perl ports, and will be phased out as these old
Perl versions expire.

For me, the most cringeworthy makefile technique is the shell command
(!=) evaluating another port with "make -C". This is very slow, fragile,
and can cause a huge mess if something is out of wack.
The technique was used in this port and it didn't even work on all
platforms. For sure FreeBSD 8 (according to portsmon) and DragonFly
were broken. Essentially the file "gtk2_3_0_0_uni_gcc_3.4.pm" was
installed, but the broken plist substitution was looking for
"gtk2__uni_gcc_3.4.pm".
To fix this robustly, get rid of the whole "make -C" mess and the plist
substituion and just use the find command to dynamically add this one
file to the plist. Since it starts with a unique pattern, we really
don't need to know the Wx version in order to establish the plist with
this technique.
