Tim, Gerrit, and Anybody with an idea of how I can push this forward.
I am trying to run the boot script on WinNT with cygwin. DBD::Oracle was
compiled on this machine
with perl 5.8.0.
To keep the posts short (and not burden those who are not intrested) I have
a 'blow by blow'
account of my attempt posted at.

One of the more vexing problems I was having stemmed from upgrading some
portion of my system:
dlopen: Win32 error 127
Which reared its head again when I was redoing some of the exercises from
the XS tutorial. This prompted me to restart 'from scratch' with the OCI
attempt. I opted to track the attempt 'operation by operation' so it might
be useful to others trying to do the same thing.  The current state of the
effort is 2 steps short of where I had been earlier. This is where I throw
caution to the wind and dive into that portion of the boot script marked
'High Voltage'...
Any hints, help or pointers appreciated.
