OK, I have got to the bottom of this. It appears that the Fedora people
have for some reason best known to themselves decided to stop bundling
the ExtUtils::Embed module with base perl, as it was before.
Once this module is installed plperl builds and performs just fine.
Maybe someone with Fedora connections could ask them why they would do
such an odd thing. It's not like they are saving a huge amount of space.
Meanwhile, I think we should make our call to it in the config file more
robust, so we detect the call failure.
