Hackers,
Since installing Perl 5.14.1, I installed newer version of ExtUtils::ParseXS from CPAN. I installed it with `make
installUNINST=1`, which removes the copy of xsubpp that ships with core Perl. This results in an error during
PostgreSQL`make`:
make -C plperl install
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels -Wformat-security
-fno-strict-aliasing-fwrapv -I. -I. -I../../../src/include -I/usr/local/include/libxml2 -I/usr/local/include
-I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.14.1/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE -c -o plperl.o plperl.c

SPI.xs>SPI.c
Can't open perl script "/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.14.1/ExtUtils/xsubpp": No such file or directory
I [asked][] Perl 5 Porters for the proper way to find xsubpp, and was [told][] that it was probably best to look in
@Config{qw(installsitebininstallvendorbin installbin)}.

The attached patch makes this change. I've tested it on Mac OS X and it works fine. Someone else will have to test it
onWindows.
Best,
David
