Thanks for getting back to me so fast.  We went back and tried to eliminate a 
few variables and went through the readme files once again.  I did a clean 
compile of Perl 5.8.6 and all modules.  We still get the same error.  Here are 
the answers to your questions:

* Version of Perl (5.8.6)
        5.8.6
* Version of DBI (1. 48 - you said current)
        1.48
* Version of DBD::Informix (2005.01 - you said current)
        2005.01
* Version of CSDK or ESQL/C (e.g. 2.90.FC1 - the letters and numbers
can be important)
        2.81.HC2.HPUX
* Version of IDS (or SE, XPS, OnLine) - though that is not going to
material this time.
        Not sure what you are asking here, sorry.
* Hardware platform (HP-UX, probably PA-RISC rather than Itanium,
32-bit or 64-bit).
        64 bit PA-RISC
* O/S Version.
        11.11 (11.i)
* Which C compiler you're using - version number\
        GCC 3.4.2
* Output of 'perl -V'

        Yes

        Don't have that.  Could re-install if necessary.
* Have you built any programs with the CSDK you have installed?
        No, this is a new client for us.

I suspect the issue is with our SDK client.  I am not sure where it needs to be 
installed.  We have database connectivity on this machine via ODBC.  I 
understand that may be an alternative.  Our database servers are remote.  I 
have conulted our DBAs and they just are not familiar with the SDK client, etc.

Thanks for any help you can offer.  Please let me know if you need addtional 
details.
