I'm looking for oks for this pkg_create diff (from espie, with the
\Q$k\E fix).  After jca committed libtalloc on Friday, I can't find
any other ports that would break.  (One can find these ports with
"make print-plist-all" or databases/pkglocatedb.)  I built only a few
ports.  It works with both perl 5.40.1 and 5.42.0.

To recap, the diff prevents a warning in 5.42 from "!$x =~ m/y/", and
requires that every @lib in a plist has its ${LIBname_VERSION}.
