Hi, there is a nice perl package, called PDL, which uses PGPLOT.pm

I have PDL running, but I only get the Trio output. The PGPLOT output
isn't working.

Has anyone installed the PGPLOT perl module, and sucessfully
run the tests?   I can compile it fine but it chokes when I run the tests.
I have communicated with the author, and he has come to the conclusion
that my library somehow was compiled improperly.  BUT  the pgplot (c program)
demos all run fine, with the same compiler  and library.
I recently upgraded to gcc 3.0.3 from the 2.95 that came with suse7.2, it
compiled the c pgplot fine, but the perl PGPLOT fails to run.

The author has done some tests with me on this, and the fundamental
problem stems from these results:

On his working machine, when he does
 nm /usr/lib/libcpgplot.a | grep -i cpgdraw
he gets

cpgdraw.o:
00000004 T cpgdraw

when I do it  I  only get

cpgdraw.o

Below is the author's requested debugging info. The only error was during the
make, where it asks to provide a "prototyping behavior for PGPLOT.s"
