Perl clean-up in freebsd

Hello,

I have a FreeBSD 4.7 server and I just updated perl from 5.8 to 5.8.2 with the
ports-upgrade. I have a mess with all theses perls(no pun intended). Webmin(ver
1.21)  perl module shows 5.8 at the top instead of 5.8.2 and there are 3 of the same
modules listed for every perl module (5.0053, 5.8, 5.8.2). 5.8.2 is installed
correctly and is being used as the default as I have checked conf files and so
forth. How do I get rid of the left over perls(5.0053 and 5.8) as I still see their
directories and obviously their modules? But more importantly, also make sure
nothing depends on these old versions before I delete them.
