Description Hiroo Ono 2004-08-22 20:40:27 UTC 
	The pre-install and post-install target of lang/perl5.8 port
	do not check the case that user id is not 0. To enable portupgrade
	work running with user privilege, use SU_CMD in such cases.

Fix: The patch to Makefile is attached.
	Note that I have a machine that place WRKDIR on a NFS partition
	for some reason, I'd like to run portupgrade with non-root user
	privilege and make use of SU_CMD.
How-To-Repeat: 	run make install without root privilege in lang/perl5.8

Ports system _is_ SU_CMD aware. 

Installation of lang/perl5.8 works from non-root 
account with defined SU_CMD (ex. in your environment).
