You didn't attach a main.log, but based on ​this stack overflow page where someone answered:

perl was built using a compiler found at ... but it no longer exists at that location

I believe this is another expression of #59786. If so, you could work around the problem by installing whatever compiler perl is expecting to find (which could be some MacPorts clang or gcc). Hopefully the full log would tell you which one.

Replying to ryandesign:

You didn't attach a main.log

Port did not leave one, so I just copied from GNU Emacs' *compilation* buffer. (Maybe I should add that upgrade worked!)

Right now p5.34-libwww-perl @6.670.0 is installed, and since upgrading the package then worked, the ticket can be closed IMO.
