This partially fixes the build for the "embedded perl interpreter in vi"
feature that you get if you build vi with -DPERLINTERP.

It won't work if the Perl built during a ``make world'' is different, or
if you're cross-building.  It might not work for threaded perl.

Anyone who likes being able to use PCRE (Perl-compatible regular
expressions) from the ex prompt in vi and would like to fix
cross-building for everyone else is welcome to behold the mess in
src/usr.bin/vi/Makefile.  Strategic help may be available from our Perl5
maintainer, markm (Mark Murray). :-)

Ciao,
Sheldon.
