 The problem seems to lie in the build process.  The step that is missing is the one that converts man1 and MAN3 pages into gz
 format.  The build log provides no warning or error messages, it is a clean build without compressed man pages.
 
 This is also occurring for autoconf-2.69.
 
 A quick fix, which isn't the right answer, is to:
 cd /usr/ports/lang/perl5.16 
 sed -i "" -e "/man1/s;.gz;;g" -e "/MAN3/s;.gz;;g" pkg-plist
 make clean deinstall package
 
 The build environment does not use pkgng nor poudiere.
 
 The following may be relevant from /etc/make.conf
 WRKDIRPREFIX= /var/ports
 DISTDIR=      /distfiles
 TMPDIR=       /tmp
 PACKAGES=     /packages
 DEFAULT_VERSIONS=perl5=5.16 python=2.7 python2=2.7 apache=22 apache2=22
 NO_STAGE=yes
 
 Kind regards, Dewayne.
