The change to DynaLoader went in on Februaru 2011:
   [perl #84358] Removing AutoLoader from DynaLoader
so we started noticing the failure some time in the
perl 5.13 chain (perl 5.13.10 or earlier).

So if the version of perl is newer than this, then
both amavisd and SpamAssassin will be failing the
DKIM tests.

The fix to security/p5-Crypt-OpenSSL-RSA port in FreeBSD
was backported to 0.26:
