perl mapscript compiles OK, and doesn't seem to depend on any shared libraries, except 
system ones. (On MacOS X, "otool -L" is equivalent to the "ldd" command on Linux)

% otool -L /Library/Perl/darwin/auto/mapscript/mapscript.bundle

-- Solution--


My mapserver build is all static linking, including OGR. The mapserver build creates 
perlvars file, which has the OGR libs on line 5. perl mapscripts Makefile.PL only takes the 
first 4 lines.

My mapserver makefile has this OGR section. Note OGR_LIB is blank, i guess because 
it's statically linked.

# Optional OGR Support.  OGC Simple Feature inspired interface for vector
# formats.  See http://gdal.velocet.ca/projects/opengis/
OGR=      -DUSE_OGR
OGR_LIB=
OGR_INC=  -I/Users/alex/ARC/gis/Mapserver/gdal-1.1.7/ogr/ogrsf_frmts -I/Users/a\
lex/ARC/gis/Mapserver/gdal-1.1.7/ogr -I/Users/alex/ARC/gis/Mapserver/gdal-1.1.7\
/ogr/../port
OGR_STATIC= /Users/alex/ARC/gis/Mapserver/gdal-1.1.7/ogr/ogrsf_frmts/ogrsf_frmt\
s.a /Users/alex/ARC/gis/Mapserver/gdal-1.1.7/ogr/ogr.a /Users/alex/ARC/gis/Maps\
erver/gdal-1.1.7/ogr/../port/cpl.a

The problem is that perl mapscript's Makefile.PL is not copying the 5th line from the 
"perlvars" file. The 5th line has the OGR stuff. I appended the contents of OGR_STATIC in 
mapserver makefile to the EXTRALIBS and LDLOADLIBS in the perl mapscript makefile, 
compiled and re-installed.

I believe this is now fixed in the main branch. I simply updated Makefile.PL to
look at that 5th line and make use of it. I'm not set up to test it here though.
