[ID 20010122.139] perlcc: link error: missing boot_DynaLoader

This is a bug report for perl from Frank.Herrmann@alcatel.de,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.28 running under perl v5.6.0.

I tried to compile a perl script (htmltoc) using perlcc. I get a link
error when the generated c code is compiled. The symbol
boot_DynaLoader (DynaLoader.a) is missing. See the log:

**********

Adding DynaLoader.a  at the end of the line "gcc ..." and reexecuting
this line works for a "hello world" script but not for "htmltoc". I
guess due to command line arguments. See the error message:

Undefined subroutine &main::GetOptions called at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0/newgetopt.pl line 61.

You can find the "htmltoc" at
http://www.oac.uci.edu/indiv/ehood/htmltoc.doc.html

It would be great if there is a workaround so that I can compile
"htmltoc" into an executable.
