  I know what the problem is, I just don't have time to fix it.

  On line 348 of Makefile.PL (from DBD-Oracle-1.15-rc2-20040112.tar.gz), 
the term "build" should read "build32" for building 32bit apps from a 64bit 
installation of Oracle 9i.

  I can easily use the "perl_is_64bit" function to change this term 
accordinglt but the problem is that more output lines are produced when 
using "build32" than when using "build".  It looks like Oracle sees 
the "build32" and then calls "build" with extra paramter lines.

  I tried messing about with the code around line 396 to add an "or @cmds 
== blah" term but that on it's own didn't work.

  It appears specifc lines of the output stored in @cmds are used elsewhere 
in Makefile.PL and this usage would all need changing to do something 
different is perl_is_64bit is false.

  That's as much as I can do now.

  Thanks,
