This is a revised version of the patch with the following additional
changes:

- Further generalized the 'what to load into Safe compartment' logic.

- Added the 'warnings' pragma to the list of modules to load into Safe.
  So plperl functions can now "use warnings;" - added test for that.

- Added 'use 5.008001;' to plc_perlboot.pl as a run-time check to
  complement the configure-time check added by Tom Lane recently.
