@Chris, I installed a binary distribution of GSL v 1.13, so the output
from the three commands you recommend gives this:

$ gsl-config --libs
-L/usr/local/lib -lgsl -lgslcblas -lm
$ gsl-config --cflags
-I/usr/local/include
$ gsl-config --version
1.13

The minimum version for GSL is 1.3, so since 13 > 3, this should be ok.

@Puneet - no worries, something is always better than nothing. I'll
update the wiki if I figure this out.
@Joel - an Alien::GSL module would be great and might resolve the
issue I am having here. However, installing GSL is not the problem
right now.
@Matthew - awesome... where can I find the instructions for building
SciPDL? I like to keep up with the latest and greatest PDL from git.
:-)

Another weird aspect of this whole thing is that I have WITH_GSL =>
undef, but running the makefile (even after make realclean) leads to
lots of the GSL sub-modules saying that they "Will forcibly try and
build PDL::GSL::<submodule> on this system". The build for the
submodules is being forced because the main GSL module found what it
needed and set WITH_GSL => 1, but something's screwy with the
submodules and they are no longer able to find what they need.
Actually, I believe the issue is with PDL::Core::Dev::trylink, but now
I'm getting to the point where I should probably move the discussion
to the porters.

Before I do that, are there any other insights regarding PDL's GSL bindings?
