#4/4 enforcing Caps, no period

[Has anyone figured-out what makes the number 393 so interesting to PW, now?]

I wonder what was going through Jordan's head during his infamous
$Id$-smashing commit.

Before I forget....

Make all p5- ports use USE_PERL instead of explicitly stating the version number in each Makefile In-Conjunction-With: Satoshi's patch to bsd.port.mk (note: unlike the last change in perl5 versions, I have only upgraded p5-* ports, not other ports that rely upon perl5.)
