My understanding is that an XS perl module cannot be built unless there is a shared libperl. Therefore a build failure in the XS subdirectories is expected. The build should finish but the use of XS modules will be disabled. > > I don't know why it adds this flag, I don't think it's meaningful when > building a XS module, the perl interpreter loads libperl itself.

Do you mean that the XS modules were built, installed and loaded whenever texi2any runs? If that is the case, I do not understand it.
