Yeah, probably so. But I don't like the idea of fixing a problem
triggered by user-supplied CFLAGS by injecting more cflags from
elsewhere. That seems likely to be counterproductive, or at
least it risks overriding what the user wanted.
Can we fix this by using something other than perl_alloc() as
the tested-for function? That is surely a pretty arbitrary
choice. Are there any standard Perl entry points that are just
plain functions with no weird macro expansions?
