in reply to expat library issue

I'm having a similar issues with XML::Parser and expat. I have Perl 5.8 compiled on AIX for 64 bit w/threading in a non-standard location ($HOME). I compiled and installed expat using the same compiler as what I used for Perl 5.8. I then tried making XML::Parser and it complained during the link-phase that I was missing symbols .XML_Parse and .XML_(whatever). Something like 80 symbols were missing.

Is there a problem with expat in a non-standard location?
