I found a reference somewhere with google (don't have it right now, or
I'd give credit where it's due) that suggested removing the "myld" from
makefile.  I wasn't sure how best to do this,  but found that executing
makefile with the nocatchstderr option eliminated the problem:

perl makefile --nocatchstderr

I'm now doing selects and inserts into my database.  (after taking care 
of a password problem.  Sigh).

You can see the reference to the option inside makefile.pl.  Hope this
helps:  I've found that using Perl and MySQL can be a RPitA.
Interesting and educational, though.

I'm also running 10.3.7.  Interesting point;  I'm running Jaguar on
another machine, with Perl 5.8.1 (that was an experience it itself), 
and it had no problem.
