Doh. You're right, I misread the (unnecessarily obscure) sed command.

I'm not sure why it's doing that either; taking the Embed output as gospel
would seem like a reasonable thing to do. But I'm hesitant to change code
that's been the same since PG 7.3 and therefore has survived two port
testing cycles without previous complaints.
Peter, it was you that committed the current contents of config/perl.m4;
do you recall why it wants to remove ccdlflags from the Embed results?
