There are 150+ Perl5 modules in the ports collection. All of them require similar "do-configure" targets. A sample target has been copied over and over, with various gratuitous divergences. At this time (2000-06-13), nearly all p5-* ports that compile something don't honor CC/CFLAGS, suggesting that the porters aren't very comfortable with handling MakeMaker manually and have blindly copied from previous ports. To unify and simplify the handling of p5-* ports, I suggest to introduce PERL_CONFIGURE, which if set will modify the configure run appropriately. At the core, PERL_CONFIGURE=yes causes perl Makefile.PL CC="${CC}" CCFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" PREFIX="${PREFIX}" to be executed by default.
