Since the stuff plperlu should be small and self contained, you just
need to set it up so all the data needed by the plperlu function is
passed as a parameter. I suppose we'd need to look at the use case to
see if this is a real obsticle.

I suppose you're not permitted to call other perl functions directly
with \%_SHARED as a parameter, right?
