Why do you define PERL_PORT if you set IGNORE?

I have not even tested this, but the comment on line 83 says there should be one, maybe it's not needed as it's IGNORE, I don't know :-)

I believe it's defined to not break INDEX

It'd break INDEX only if you have an unsupported version of Perl installed, which I'd be fine with.

Try something different.

lang/perl5.16/Makefile
105	INDEX builders do not set PACKAGE_BUILDING, so this will create false positives for checks for duplicate PGKBASE based on INDEX (what I currently use)

lang/perl5.16/Makefile
105	Maybe they could define `PACKAGE_BUILDING` ? Or do they define something else ? I'm trying to have an easy way to define the `_PERL_DEPENDS`. Maybe I'll go some other way. Grmbl.
