Can't upgrade or reinstall p5-XML-Parser port after running portupgrade -f

I've been running portupgrade -f on my ports after updating my system
from 5.2-RELEASE to 5.2-CURRENT. Most of them are done but
I was doing a portupgrade -f p5-XML-Parser but it ended badly:

...
===>   Registering installation for p5-XML-Parser-2.34_1
===>  Cleaning for libtool-1.3.5_2
===>  Cleaning for perl-5.8.2_5
===>  Cleaning for expat-1.95.7
===>  Cleaning for p5-XML-Parser-2.34_1
--->  Cleaning out obsolete shared libraries

Hmm, so I went to try it again:

# portupgrade -f p5-XML-Parser
** No such package 'p5-XML-Parser' is installed.


Hmm, ok let's install it:

# portinstall p5-XML-Parser
** The following packages were not installed or upgraded (*:skipped / !:failed)
        ! textproc/p5-XML-Parser        (negative string size (or size too big))


Hmm, maybe we can start with the package and upgrade it from there:

# pkg_add -r p5-XML-Parser
Fetching ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-current/Latest/p5-XML-Parser.tbz... Done.
pkg_add: package 'p5-XML-Parser-2.34' or its older version already installed


Hmm, ok, let's force the port install:

# portinstall -f p5-XML-Parser
** The following packages were not installed or upgraded (*:skipped / !:failed)
        ! textproc/p5-XML-Parser        (negative string size (or size too big))


Hmm, ok, let's get some help:

(feel free to fill in this space!)


Thanks,
