>Description:
	After upgrading the installed packages on this system from
	pkgsrc-2005Q1 to pkgsrc-2005Q2, mod_perl.so will no longer
	load into apache:

Syntax error on line 10 of /www/conf/global.conf:
Cannot load /usr/pkg/lib/httpd/mod_perl.so into server:
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.8.6/i386-netbsd-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so:
Undefined PLT symbol "gethostent" (symnum = 1835)

	I see that neither mod_perl.so or libperl.so have registered a
	dependency on the C library:

nsa# ldd /usr/pkg/lib/httpd/mod_perl.so
/usr/pkg/lib/httpd/mod_perl.so:
         -lm.0 => /usr/lib/libm387.so.0
         -lm.0 => /usr/lib/libm.so.0
         -lcrypt.0 => /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.0
         -lpthread.0 => /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0
         -lperl => /usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.8.6/i386-netbsd-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so
nsa# ldd /usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.8.6/i386-netbsd-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so
/usr/pkg/lib/perl5/5.8.6/i386-netbsd-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so:
         -lm.0 => /usr/lib/libm387.so.0
         -lm.0 => /usr/lib/libm.so.0
         -lcrypt.0 => /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.0
         -lpthread.0 => /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0
nsa# 

	However, it appears that the old packages also did not have
	such an explicit dependency (I have the old packages
	available), so this is probably barking up the wrong tree.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Install ap-perl-1.29.nb1, apache-1.3.33nb5, perl-5.8.6nb4 --
	all versions present on pkgsrc-2005Q2, and watch apache with
	mod_perl fail to start where it succeeded with pkgsrc-2005Q1.

>Fix:
	Sorry, I have no idea.
