DBD-Oracle Compilation error on OpenVMS

I have installed DBD-Oracle on an OpenVMS IA64 box. 

Versions:

oracle 10.2.0.4 (Client - Db is 11.1.0.7 on solaris)
DBI 1.615
DBD 1.26
Perl 5.8.6


It is as such completed, but I got this error on the way:

This may well be an OpenVMS problem, that an external identifier name must 
not exceed 31 carachters ?

What I did was replace all ocurrencies of 

        dbd_phs_ora_varchar2_table_fixup_after_execute 

with

        dbd_phs_ora_varchar2_table_fea
in

        DBDIMP.C

which helped a lot.

Is this a known problem? or a serious one ?
