I'm seeing pretty amazing speedups here, though I just checked in a
change that stopped redundantly unpacking every lib/auto/*/*.so file
(those are handled as-needed by the DynaLoader hack.) The code in
question was a fix for bundling shared libraries (such as Wx), it now
only unpacks the shlib/$Config{archname}/ files. It seems to only be
involved in use PAR qw(foo) case and not the exe.
