7.1.3 doesn't come with it by default. The original patch from Alex Pilosov
can be found here:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2001-06/msg00586.php
I applied that to my 7.1.3 (before 7.2 was out) with minimal hassle. You
should also be able to grab the whole dir right off CVS, I don't think there
were any changes in the core that affected it. Though my knowledge there is
lacking.
If it's feasible, a better idea would be to upgrade to 7.2.1 which includes
plperlu among many other improvements.
