This is a bug report for perl from perl@​muc.infineon.com,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.35 running under perl v5.8.5.

The attached patch agast Embed.pm makes this module honour the
definition for libperl from the Config. This is important for
Perl installations that do not have libperl.so but some different
name.
