diff libpurple/plugins/perl/perl.c @ 16364:a5a64fcad0ca

Kill the libpurpleperl hack library and move the init stuff to perl.so itself. This works fine for me and I'm hoping will work fine on Solaris as well. When it gets tested we'll want to drop libpurpleperl.c but until I know it works I don't want to drop it (because of mtn's die die dir merge stuff).
