The reason is that boot.o is compiled with something like -fstack-protector-strong
(hence stack checks are compiled in), but boot.exe is linked without this flag
(which would have linked the library implementing these checks).
OK, so $static_ldflags is back, but this time the suppression of -l<perl lib> works.

I've committed both fixes at https://www.openfoundry.org/svn/par/PAR-Packer/trunk -
can you give it a try?
