Bug in PL/Perl makefile

Missing .o file in make file. Patchfile attached with this mail fixes the
problem!

David, the plperl makefile has been completely rewritten by Mark Hollomon
in the last couple days. I have not had time yet to check it and commit
it to CVS, but I am attaching what he sent me; would you like to try it?

regards, tom lane

This has been fixed by the plperl maintainer. Beta tomorrow should show
the new code.

Hello,

Have run a full installation process for this twice now, and have
experienced the same problem both times: a psql binary is not built.

I've got around this by using the old 6.5.3 one, but still...

Running on OpenBSD 2.6.

If you need any files or logs from me, let me know - I can redo this in
full if required.

Regards,

Mark.
