Thanks for the report.

It's a bug: in version 1.1.1 "configure" in rlm_eap_peap uses a
different autoconf test than "configure" in top level directory.

It's a different bug: we should add the user defined directory
to LDFLAGS instead of LIBS.

This variable type should be defined in the libperl headers, I've no
idea why it isn't the case on your system.
