 What's wrong, at least in my case, is that config_heavy.pl from the
 Perl package contains
 
    ldflags='-Wl,-rpath,/usr/pkg/lib -fstack-protector -L/usr/pkg/lib'
 
 which is wrong since the build environment is not in and not supposed
 to be using /usr/pkg. This makes its way to p5-Net-LibIDN, which tries
 to use it to link test programs, where it's intercepted by the
 wrappers and removed, so the test programs' rpath ends up not being
 set at all so they won't run.
 
 How it gets this way I dunno.
 
 Is this (or something like it) also the problem on dfly?
