I think you are going about this the wrong way. Create a hook in each plperl
func that does the initial setup for you as needed. Simply store a
value in $_SHARED indicating whether it has already run or not for that
session. This also avoid any overhead at all of calling perl_setup() if
the connection in question is never going to use plperl, or even if it is
going to use plperl but does not need perl_setup().
