Alas back when I had Enterprise $upport monies to spend (Steve remembers),
AS told me the one suite of modules they couldn't support were the DBD::*
drivers for DBI as they couldn't support many-to-many versions. But those
were the  modules that made me want to pay for outsourced support.
Better to build Perl and modules with local OS, compiler.

Thankfully Strawberry's long winter nap has ended and they're on tempo
again.
