I had similar issue with BSD/OS.

I was told in October to add the following to patches/patch-aa:

       bsdos)
               xxx="-Wl,-Rshrpdir"
               ;;

But that was for lang/perl5/patches/patch-aa, not perl58.

The problem for you maybe is PERL_ARCHLIB is not set to mipseb-irix5.3.
Look at patches/patch-aa. And then look at code to see what defines that.
