I'm doing some testing with perl 5.8.0 and trying to use DBI.  I know
that the DBI and ithreads are listed as beta and not production ready,
but the problem I think I'm having is that this fails to even make the
clone.  It never gets to using the dbi itself.

The script is a Sendmail::Milter filter that I'm working on.  It dies
right after I make a connection to the sendmail engine.  Thats why I'm
pretty sure that this is caused by the cloning.

The actual error is:
Starting Sendmail::Milter 0.18 engine.
Assertion tbl failed: file "sv.c", line 8798 at
/home/mm/installs/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i686-linux-thread-multi/DBI
..pm line 425.

Is this just something where I need to wait for the next version of DBI?
Does DBD::Oracle not support this yet?

Thanks,  Scott

This is DBI 1.30 with DBD::Oracle 1.12.
