Yes, I had built perl from source with debugging via Potrs (set DEBUG option for the port either in /etc/make.conf or via "dialog" brought up with make config in the port directory); at the end of "perl -V" ...

Characteristics of this binary (from libperl):
  Compile-time options:
    DEBUGGING
    HAS_TIMES

I had rebuilt DateTime again (from source, with perl with debugging) in case I might not have removed all of its dependencies. No difference.

I will try later to build perl & DateTime outside of Ports, but does not look like that would help any given the evidence so far.

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
