As for exporting a symbol from the extension as you try to do, I doubt that will work.

Actually, that will work just fine, check out the source of Audio::Ao for an example.

To the original poster: Move the config directives out of the __DATA__ section and into the perl portion like so:

use Inline C => 'DATA',
                INC => '...',
                LIBS => '...',
                VERSION => '0.02',
                NAME => 'MYMODU::mystuff';
