I'm guessing that this goes for any libperl.so, e.g. libperl.so.5.6 or libperl.so.5.8. If so then it would explain the weird behavior that I've been getting when compiling mod_perl.
Normally in addition to libperl.so.5.8 there will be a symlink to libperl.so. Applications normally link against .so and not .so.x.y, so an upgrade of that library will be possible w/o requiring the compilation of the former.
Hmm, that's what I thought too and was creating a symlink from /usr/lib/libperl.so to the newly created one. I was still getting strange behavior though so moved them all out of /usr/lib. Seems a bit better now.
If the application links against a specific libperl.so.x.y that would explain that behavior.
