No, I doubt it will reveal anything useful. The problem here if you 
want to know exactly, is that libdl is incorrectly being linked 
first, before it links against xchat. This causes a static reference 
to the libdl symbols, which then conflicts with the same (dynamic) 
symbols being exported by Perl. Ahem, so far to the techincal part of 
it.

On the more applied part, this shouldn't happen, since the package 
has a patch to make sure exactly this never happens. The only times 
I've seen this crop up anyway was when libxpg4 was installed. This in 
turn is so because libxpg4 enforces so-called "flat namespace 
linking" system wide (again, I am a bit hand waving here, sorry :-).

RIght now I have no idea what else could be going wrong, but then at 
2:30 AM that's not really a shame I think :-) I'll sleep over it, and 
in addition maybe somebody else has an idea.
