Your monkinesses, please help me with a PGPLOT.pm install issue.

Below is the output from 'perl Makefile.PL' command, followed by the output from the make, and make test commands. I have the latest pgplot libraries installed, including the corrections for 64-bit architecture and the c-wrapper. All the demos run fine so this seems to be working.

My LD_LIBRARY_PATH env variable is set and includes the standard paths and the path for the pgplot libraries. MY PGPLOT_DIR env variable is also set... I am confused... :-s

===============

Interestingly, if I install the module dispite the failed tests it doesn't complain even when I use the module... its only when I actually come to open a PGPLOT window that it fails....
