Re: Problem connecting to Oracle w/ DBI-1.21

[lembark]

This looks like a problem with 5.6.1 or XS stepping on
$_ somewhere.

If I change the code calling the sub that calls DBI->connect
from:

    for ( qw(...) )
    {
        my %argz = (..., foo => $_, ... );

        subcall %argz;
    }

to

    for my $junk ( qw(...) )
    {
        my %argz = ( ..., foo => $junk, ... );

        subcall %argz;
    }

then the connection works.

Basically, anything in any portion of the calling code
that uses an implicit $_ in a foreach loop steps on DBI.

Fix for now is to avoid $_.
