Okay,

If I do this in the same way as you:

houston@thebe:Crypt-OpenSSL-Random-0.04 > perl Makefile.PL LIBS=":nosearch -lssl -lcrypto"

Unrecognized argument in LIBS ignored: ':nosearch'
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lssl
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lcrypto
Writing Makefile for Crypt::OpenSSL::Random

houston@thebe:Crypt-OpenSSL-Random-0.04 > grep lssl Makefile
# MakeMaker ARGV: (qLIBS=:nosearch -lssl -lcrypto)
# LIBS => [q-lssl -lcrypto]
cd $(DISTVNAME) && $(ABSPERLRUN) Makefile.PL "LIBS=:nosearch -lssl -lcrypto"
$(PERLRUN) Makefile.PL "LIBS=:nosearch -lssl -lcrypto"
LIBS=':nosearch -lssl -lcrypto'

houston@thebe:Crypt-OpenSSL-Random-0.04 > gmake

...
gcc -G -R/opt/bw/lib/i386 -L/opt/bw/lib/i386 -L/opt/bw/lib Random.o -o blib/arch/auto/Crypt/OpenSSL/Random/Random.so
\
\

...

And during install:

PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /opt/bw/bin/i386/perl "-Iblib/lib" "-Iblib/arch" test.pl
1..5
Can't load 'blib/arch/auto/Crypt/OpenSSL/Random/Random.so' for module Crypt::OpenSSL::Random: ld.so.1: perl: fatal: relocation error: file blib/arch/auto/Crypt/OpenSSL/Random/Random.so: symbol RAND_bytes: referenced symbol not found at /opt/bw/lib/perl/5.12.1/distro/i386/DynaLoader.pm line 200.

This had worked previously with the exact same 'build recipe' however we have changed the prefix.

Is there any binary that the build process of perl itself depends on during 'make install' that I might have missed?

Thanks for the help so far mate!
