 I was unfamiliar enough with perl5.setup that I choose as a first step to
 add the proc perl5.create_variants as a standalone proc.

 (without `create_variants`) doesn't create any variants at all.

 At some point I imagined perl5.setup would be extend to create subports
 _OR_ variants based on a Portfile variable, defaulting to current behavior
 in the absence of the variable. I currently am not familiar enough with
 perl5.setup to provide test cases for it's current functionality so I left
 it alone for now.
