Thanks. So it looks like it's not the symbol not being exported. I wonder if the image base thing is somehow the problem? Sounds like it should just be an efficiency difference, by avoiding some relocations, not a functional difference. Can you try adding just that to the flags for building and whether that then allows a LOAD 'plperl' to succeed? Greetings, Andres Freund
