Two things.
1) For this to work you should first use Inline to build an installable
module (like Math::Simple) as described in the new release. Building C
code on the fly using PerlApp is probably a *bad* idea.
2) Even if you follow point one, this probably won't work anyway. Inline
depends on a normal file system to load the extension object. This is
not an insurmountable problem, just one that I have not addressed yet.
Hold on....

Well luckily I work at ActiveState. I just talked to the PerlApp folks.
We figured out how to add support. I'll try to add a fix before YAPC.
This might be release 0.41 or maybe just a patch.
Cheers, Brian
