#3 Portmanager does not properly detect some port versions

The output of portmanager -s really says it all here:

have:bind9-base-9.3.1 status: OLD
available:bind9-9.3.1 /
dns/bind9

have:perl-threaded-5.8.6_2 status: OLD
available:perl-5.8.6_2 /
lang/perl5.8

Unfortunately this prevents me from trusting
portmanager -u, especially the latter one. I'm on a
multi-cpu system running spamassassin, and the
performance degradation would really suck if it
overwrote with a non-threading version. I'm a bit
perplexed by the bind one too...

    portmanager is behaving correctly in both cases:

    bind9-base-9.3.1
    bind9-9.3.1

    perl-threaded-5.8.6_2
    perl-5.8.6_2

    The names are different in each case
