If you install perl from ports, you apparently get bsdpan included.
I think bsdpan is supposed to create the appropriate package bill-of-materials
for Perl modules when you use CPAN, only things seems to behave differently
than the packages you get using the ports tree (which have a "p5-" prefix
rather than "bsdpan-").
