Thank you all again for the help, Per the suggestion, I removed the '-L' from the DynaLoader.a chunk, and things compiled fine. Whew!

The compile string is now: 

cc '-Wl,-E' -I "/usr/local/include" -I "/opt/perl/lib/5.6.1/PA-RISC1.1
+-thread-multi/CORE" -o codeGen xsinit.c codeGen.
c -L/usr/local/lib -L "/opt/perl/lib/5.6.1/PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi/COR
+E" "/opt/perl/lib/5.6.1/PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi/auto/DynaLoa
der/DynaLoader.a" -lperl -lnsl -lm -lc -lcrypt -lsec  -L/usr/local/lib

Unfortunately, when I run the executable I still get that same ol' frustrating error: 
Can't load module File::Glob, dynamic loading not available in this pe
+rl.
  (You may need to build a new perl executable which either supports
  dynamic loading or has the File::Glob module statically linked into 
+it.)
Compilation failed in require at search.pl line 8.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at search.pl line 8.
Undefined subroutine &main::search_files called at search.pl line 8.

And, of course, things are lovely if I remove any reference to glob(). Beyond this point, I'm not sure how to create an executable that "supports dynamic loading". Hmmm, perhaps naively I thought DynaLoader.a would do that. Perhaps - if there are no more obvious things for me to try - I will make do w/o glob() as part of my embedded Perl.

Thank you all,

MatthewFrancis
