This would be a pain for dumps, because the user would have to install
the modules separately.  Maybe we could have a different language (say
plperl2 for lack of a better name) that could work this way; if you
really wanted to do this, you could.

Having plperl functions as separate files would be great for stuff like
syntax coloring in editors.
