First of all, I would *strongly* recommend that you consider doing the build
in MPW. I think you'll be saving yourself a lot of trouble in the long run.
dmake is available at ftp://err.ethz.ch/pub/neeri/Misc/

Apart from that, the link problems with the Perl_ symbols you're experiencing
are caused by not linking with Perl itself. The easiest way to achieve that is
to simply link your shared library with a PowerPC or fat version of the
application or MPW tool.
