Hello.
I don't see any reason in such change.
We have many perl's stuff, which have installed something in bin/  (for
example www/p5-App-gist devel/p5-cpan-listchanges) and it's lives with
prefix without any problem. Even if it not perl module, it's 100% perl
script which using own modules and external also.
So find and rename all of them (ports with such facts) or leave it as is.
