Hi,

to build perl support inside postgres it needs the shared version of
libperl (libperl.so). If I understand it correctly, it's
performance-wise not very recommended to build libperl this way as a
system-wide configuration. Is there a clean way around this instead of
having to re-compile perl with a special ebuild just for my system?

Thanks for the help,

One option would be to create a new libperl ebuild.  Another would be to
extend the current perl ebuild to always build a .so, but to not
necessarily use it for the perl binary itself.

I don't know which is better, or if it would really be all that bad for
/usr/bin/perl to use a perl.so.
