Not sure what perlcc has to do with DBI, but I'll bite.
As it says in the POD, "perlcc is *very* experimental".
IIRC, there was/is some discussion of removing it from
the upcoming 5.10 release. To my knowledge, it has never
worked reliably except on the most trivial of scripts.
And unless you're prepared to roll up your sleeves and muck
in, you're pretty much out of luck wrt support.
If you really need to create a standalone executable, I'd
suggest you look into PAR/pp, or any of the commercial
alternatives (my personal fav is perl2exe). While they're
not really "compiled", they generally accomplish the same
net effect.
