I grabbed XML-Xerces-1.5.2_0.tar.gz and did 'perl Makefile.PL; make;
make test' only to find that 100% of the tests fail.  I tracked this
down to PERL_DL_NONLAZY; if this is set to 1 then Perl segfaults for
each of the tests.  I wasn't sure how to debug this, so I tried just
removing that environment variable - which means that Perl won't check
all the symbols in an object file as soon as it loads, but only as
needed - and ran the tests by hand.

Running the tests without PERL_DL_NONLAZY produced much better results,
but still some failed.  I would like to ask about these relatively small
failures and come back to the segfault later.  The problem is an
undefined symbol __13XMLPScanToken.  Here's the output of running the
tests:

Any ideas why that particular symbol should be undefined?  I have
