I didn't have much choice but to manually install some modules. Even
worse, I had to manually (read copy) install the CGI.pm files because the
Makefile.pl wouldn't work.

On the upside, I wouldn't worry too much about having to use cpan to
install modules rather than the FreeBSD ports. The end result is the same,
the only thing you don't get is a pkg entry saying it's installed. But
there is never going to be a port for every module you need anyway.
