Hrmph. FWIW, I see the same configure results on my own Macbook Pro:

configure:7158: checking for flags to link embedded Perl
configure:7174: result: -L/usr/local/lib -L/System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE -lperl -ldl -lm -lutil -lc

But I tried "make installcheck" in plperl quite a few times with no
problems. (And yes, I tried some assorted settings of PERL_HASH_SEED,
as well as none at all.)

At this point I'm thinking that the perl you've got in /opt/local must
be bollixing the works somehow, though it's not clear how. It's also
really strange that it evidently only fails some of the time ...
