You probably need to rebuild all the p5-* ports.  If you use portupgrade
(sysutils/portupgrade), try 'portupgrade -af p5-\*'.

The old perl modules are sitting in a perl version-dependant location, and
5.8.2 uses that location.

(P.S. don't forget to re-run 'use.perl port', and edit make.conf as
necessary before doing this.)
