--->  Configuring perl5.10
Configure: unknown option --disable-dependency-tracking
Usage: Configure [-dehrsEKOSV] [-f config.sh] [-D symbol] [-D symbol=value]
                 [-U symbol] [-U symbol=] [-A command:symbol...]
  -d : use defaults for all answers.
  -e : go on without questioning past the production of config.sh.
  -f : specify an alternate default configuration file.
  -h : print this help message and exit (with an error status).
  -r : reuse C symbols value if possible (skips costly nm extraction).
  -s : silent mode, only echoes questions and essential information.
  -D : define symbol to have some value:
         -D symbol         symbol gets the value 'define'
         -D symbol=value   symbol gets the value 'value'
       common used examples (see INSTALL for more info):
         -Duse64bitint            use 64bit integers
         -Duse64bitall            use 64bit integers and pointers
         -Dusethreads             use thread support
         -Dinc_version_list=none  do not include older perl trees in @INC
         -DEBUGGING=none          DEBUGGING options
         -Dcc=gcc                 choose your compiler
         -Dprefix=/opt/perl5      choose your destination
  -E : stop at the end of questions, after having produced config.sh.
  -K : do not use unless you know what you are doing.
  -O : let -D and -U override definitions from loaded configuration file.
  -S : perform variable substitutions on all .SH files (can mix with -f)
  -U : undefine symbol:
         -U symbol    symbol gets the value 'undef'
         -U symbol=   symbol gets completely empty
       e.g.:  -Uversiononly
  -A : manipulate symbol after the platform specific hints have been applied:
         -A append:symbol=value   append value to symbol
         -A symbol=value          like append:, but with a separating space
         -A define:symbol=value   define symbol to have value
         -A clear:symbol          define symbol to be ''
         -A define:symbol         define symbol to be 'define'
         -A eval:symbol=value     define symbol to be eval of value
         -A prepend:symbol=value  prepend value to symbol
         -A undef:symbol          define symbol to be 'undef'
         -A undef:symbol=         define symbol to be ''
       e.g.:  -A prepend:libswanted='cl pthread '
              -A ccflags=-DSOME_MACRO
  -V : print version number and exit (with a zero status).

The perl ports (perl5.8 and perl5.10) don't support +universal at the moment.

Clarified in the Portfile, r33004.
