You can do that yes. spamc pretty much requires almost nothing to link against, and MakeMaker insists on jamming a bunch of things into the linker. You can hand edit the Makefile after perl Makefile.PL, but a probably better solution would be to find why MakeMaker on your machine is trying to link libndbm in. Could you add a line to the Makefile.PL in the spamc build rule to just echo all those $(CFCCFLAG) etc paramters in a way where we can tell which one is which? Then we can try to track down which one is inserting the bogus libs.
