Earlier today I noticed these lines in this buildfarm log
http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=platypus&dt=2005-08-16%2002:05:00

/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1/mach/CORE/libperl.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
Does that mean that we are attempting to link against a static libperl.a? I thought we were supposed to inhibit that.
Or am I misreading?
