Hi, I have a suggestion to add to your README the next time 
DBD-Oracle is released.  I have installed DBI and DBD-Oracle on a 
Solaris 9 machine with no problems.  When I tried installing 
DBD-Oracle on Solaris 10, most of the make tests would fail with an 
out of memory error.  A small test script of mine would fail 
also.  Actually the test would run, but it would still generate the 
error.  I found this page after some Google searching:

http://markmail.org/message/pstd2qdm7tfko6dc?q=out+of+memory+list:org%2Eperl%2Edbi-users#query:out%20of%20memory%20list%3Aorg.perl.dbi-users+page:1+mid:alx2mweo2wqspeqp+state:results

and the suggested workaround fixed my problem.  I don't know if this 
warrants a separate README.solaris.txt or if it would just go into 
README.help.txt, but if you could put in a blurb that setting 
ORACLE_HOME may alleviate "out of memory" errors under Solaris 10 it 
might help someone else.

    Thanks for your time.
