	It seems like reading the "port contents" output would be
better, is there a good way to get that w/o shelling out to something
like:

env VERSION="5.12" PREFIX="/opt/local" sh -c 'port contents perl${VERSION} | egrep "${PREFIX}/bin/perl5" |  sed -E "s%${PREFIX}/bin/%%" | egrep -v "perl${VERSION}$"'

	where setting of the PREFIX variable would use port's idea
of $prefix, and VERSION based on the version we're trying to make the link for.
