Lacking a genuine 32-bit (Linux-) system, we (I) (try to) build and test a
32-bit version of MonetDB on a 64-bit (Linux-) system with 32-bit
development environment.
In general, we (buildtools/conf/MonetDB.m4) use
PERL_LIBS=`"$PERL" -MConfig -e 'print "$Config{archlib}/CORE"'
2>/dev/null`
to find during configure where to find libperl.
However, in the above case, the 64-bit perl yields a path like
/usr/lib64/perl5/CORE/
i.e., the location of the 64-bit libperl, while the 32-bit libperl is in
/usr/lib/perl5/CORE/
Hence, the check "whether we can compile with Perl" fails:
http://monetdb.cwi.nl/testing/projects/monetdb/Stable/clients/.GNU.32.32.d.1-Fedora14/config.out_log.html
says
checking whether we can compile with Perl... no

ps: it's not crucial, my checking should not do any harm in cases where it
isn't "required", and yes, it is a weird hack for (my own) convenience
;-)
