Err -- you only needed to do one of those things.  Still, it shouldn't
cause any problems having done both.

Did you run:

    # use.perl port

You need to do that, or the ports system will simply ignore the
updated perl you've installed.  Now when you type 'perl -v' it should say:

    This is perl, v5.6.1

or

    This is perl, v5.8.1

depending on which perl port you installed.  You should also be able
to run this command without errors:

    % perl -MFile::Spec -e 'print $File::Spec::VERSION, "\n";'

(which returns 0.86 on my system, but anything reasonable will do).

You should probably do a:

    # make clean

in the OpenOffice port directory and start again from scratch with the
compilation. 

	Cheers,

	Matthew
