 I ran into the same problem with 5.12, here is how I fixed it:
 
 pkg_info -qo p5-XML-SAX\* > p5-XML-SAX-list
 pkg_delete -f p5-XML-SAX\*
 portmaster `cat p5-XML-SAX-list`
 
 Also, textproc/p5-XML-SAX needs to either be marked IS_INTERACTIVE or
 patched to avoid this:
 
 Do you want XML::SAX to alter ParserDetails.ini? [Y]
