            Bug ID: 275023
           Summary: mail/exim: 4.97 build breaks if EMBEDDED_PERL is unset
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any

Exim 4.97 build apparently depends on perl5 being present at build time, for
exigrep. The port makefile declares only a run dependency, so unless
EMBEDDED_PERL is set (which brings in perl as a build dependency too), it fails
at that point:

./macro_predef > macro.c
>>> exicyclog script built
>>> exinext script built
>>> exiwhat script built
/bin/sh: ./exigrep: not found
*** Error code 127
