[resend: bounced at defender.perl.org wih this lot last time:
RFgen::logg(Initial: [12884] (/home/richard/bugs/logs/pb_19990609) /home/richard/bugs/scripts/tm_mailproc.pl set) can't open today's log (/home/richard/bugs/logs/pb_19990609)! Permission denied at /home/richard/site_perl/RFgen.pm line 193, <STDIN> chunk 126.

When I attempt to use perlcc to compile any Perl program, the
diagnostic output includes many line-pairs of the type

No definition for sub Fcntl::F_DUPFD
No definition for sub Fcntl::F_DUPFD (unable to autoload)

Further, if I attempt to compile a program that uses some module with
an XS component (for example, Socket), the output includes more
warnings relating to that module:

No definition for sub Socket::MSG_PROXY
No definition for sub Socket::MSG_PROXY (unable to autoload)

and so on.

On reaching the link stage, ld complains

/tmp/cc0004921.o(.rw+0xcf70):t.p.c: undefined reference to `XS_Fcntl_constant'

and maybe

t2.p.o(.rw+0x12ade):t2.p.c: undefined reference to `XS_Socket_pack_sockaddr_in'

and so on, and produces no executable.

A hacky way round this is to rerun the cc command line produced by
perlcc, but adding the relevant module library names (such as
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.00557/powerpc-machten/auto/Fcntl/Fcntl.a)
after -lperl. This produces working output.

Looking at B/C.pm, I see the warnings are coming from and try_autoload()
and B::CV::save(). But I don't know where to start in persuading these
functions to add the relevant static library to the cc command line
(if it hasn't already been added) on encountering an external function
instead of doing whatever it is that they do now in order to get a
dynamic library to satisfy the reference. (Or I suppose you could just
add all installed module libraries unconditionally, as makemaker does.)
