Installing radiator or any other cpan like perl package on FreeBSD using:

 	make Makefile.PL && make && make install

will automatically register a bsdpan-Radiator-4.0 oder bsdpan-whatever
package which can be easilly removed using pkg_delete.

Updating the port is the other option and also not that hard. But until 
someone gets around to it above is a very comfortable workaround.
