On recent Red Hat platforms (at least RHEL 8 and Fedora 30, maybe older), configure's probe for libperl failed if the user forces CFLAGS to be -O0. This is because some code in perl's inline.h fails to be optimized away at -O0, and said code doesn't work if compiled without -fPIC. To fix, add CFLAGS_SL to the compile flags used during the libperl probe. This is a better simulation of the way that plperl is built, anyway, so it might forestall other issues in future. Per gripe from Kyotaro Horiguchi. Back-patch to all supported branches, since people might want to build older branches on these platforms.
