I can't reproduce this on a clean build of 8.3.7 or on a clean build
of CVS HEAD, both against perl 5.10.0, so I don't think this is a
PostgreSQL bug. I'm guessing you have a bug in your code someplace.
Here's the test case I used.
create or replace function test() returns varchar as $$use
Data::Dumper; Dumper(gethostbyname("www.google.com"));$$ language
plperlu;
select test();
