This strikes me as a step in the wrong direction.  Isn't FreeBSD moving to
making more things optional packages rather than direct parts of base?

If Perl and the userland things which depend upon it can be made into
install time packages, what's stopping the same thing from being done for
GEOM (ie. libexpat and the userland things which depend upon it)?
