Name removed to protect the guilty (see below).  I replied asking for
the path to the libperl.a.  Do they know what they are talking about
or are they out in orbit past pluto somewhere?

There is no libperl.so for perl 5.004, but any package that is trying
to use perl that was doing it "right" shouldn't have to know anything
about that.  THere is a libperl.a which works just as well.

Just for reference/recap, I'm the one who has been unable to use the
createlang plperl and have been told that I need libperl.so.  I'm
running on:
