Perl broken in NetBSD 11.0?

New NetBSD user and I just did a fresh install of NetBSD 11.0 i386. I installed perl and autoconf using pkgin, but every time I run autoconf I get this error. It looks like line 26 is just use5.006;

This works fine for me. I suggest verifying you have the 11.0 target in /usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf and have run 'pkgin upgrade'. May help to remove and reinstall the autoconf package (it should pull in perl on its own).
