All I did was 'pkg set -n perl5.16:perl5' and it worked fine.

I'm curious why I did not have to modify make.conf given that I am
apparently NOT running the default version of Perl and I MUST add a
line to make.conf.  Please let me know if you can educate me on where
I went wrong in understanding UPDATING.
