DBD::Oracle works with either Oracle 8 or 9.  I built a copy on my
Linux laptop with Oracle 9i and the tests were successful.

SQL*Net for Oracle 8 can connect to 9i instances, so if you keep your
client machines on 8, you can continue to use the existing modules
without change.

If you need a PPM compiled with Oracle 9 for ActivePerl, perhaps Jeff
Urlwin can comment on availability; he maintains a private PPM
repository at ftp://ftp.esoftmatic.com/outgoing/DBI which includes
DBD-Oracle.  Ilya Sterin also had a repository, but I don't know its
URL.

See http://dev.isystek.com/dbi/fom-serve/cache/13.html for information
about building and installing modules for ActivePerl.
