Hm. On HPUX 10.20, I can report that CVS tip plperl seems to work with
perl 5.8.0 (at least it can execute a simple function). Using 5.6.1
instead, it builds without complaint and I can "createlang plperl", but
executing the perl_max example from the docs causes a core dump inside
the Perl interpreter.

I have some recollection that I never could get 5.6.1 to work with
plperl on this machine, so this isn't necessarily a regression.

It's odd that you see a compile failure though. Are you sure you have
used matching header files and Perl libraries?
