A PL/Perl function can load external code with "use", "require",
or "do". Since those are potentially dangerous operations you'll
need to create the function with plperlu, which means you'll need
to create the function as a database superuser. See "Trusted and
Untrusted PL/Perl" in the documentation for more information.
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/plperl-trusted.html
Regarding "use", "require", and "do" see the Perl documentation,
in particular the perlfunc and perlmod manual pages.
