can't find new custom module (shared library object file)

[Bill Schoolfield]

I've given up for now building my module externally. So I added it to 
the FR source tree and built it that way and it now works.

Problem solved. But I have a new problem. We also use rlm_perl. When I 
reference perl in the site file the rlm_perl.so can't be loaded. I 
checked; does exist in the lib dir.

It appears the build did not create the rlm_perl.so. I checked the 
modules/rlm_perl dir and it's Makefile has no target defined. Thus 
nothing was attempted (Make wise).

Do I need a configure switch to force the inclusion of rlm_perl?
