Thanks to a patch from dmacks, I've updated extutils-makemaker-pm to not pass -L/usr/local/lib when linking. I've also updated xml-parser-pm to BDep on it so this shouldn't happen again. I'd strongly urge anyone with a perlmod package that uses fink-installed dylibs to BuildDepends on extutils-makemaker-pm%type_pkg[perl] (>= 6.56-3) to avoid /usr/local contamination.
