Depends on how your gcc was configured; it usually uses the system linker.

I'm afraid I'm pretty much at a loss for more ideas.  I assume Perl was
able to link against the shared libperl just fine, so I don't know why INN
can't.  The only thing I can suggest is to try reinstalling Perl without
compiling it shared and see if INN will link against the static libperl.
