Can't you make DBI::Lite try to load DBI, if that works, point
everything towards that module; and if it fails, to include its own
definitions? That way, people wouldn't even need to edit their scripts.
That might mean that DBI::Lite would actually just be a scriplet, with
no subs (a loader), and the bulk of DBI::Lite be a separate module.
