I see they used the same solution that I did, namely remove the part of
the sed statement that removes the ccdflags frmo the ExtUtils::Embed's
output. The rpath solution you provided to patch GNUmakefile did not
work however, bailing with:

gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wmissing-declarations, -Wl,
-rpath, /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.6/mach/CORE -fpic -DPIC -I.
-I/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.6/mach/CORE -I../../../src/include   -c -o
plperl.o plperl.c
gcc: cannot specify -o with -c or -S and multiple compilations

(As you said it may not work on all platforms). 

At this point I will try to submit or suggest a patch for the freebsd
ports system to simply change the lines in the configure config/perl.m4
files to strip out the replacement part of the sed statement.

Thanks,

Sven
