Unless the "skip-innodb" option is enabled in their conf file. Also,
this requires that the user not only have DBD::mysql installed, but have
mysqladmin installed as well.

Yes, but only if you've already created an InnoDB table. :-/
I guess that leaves me with attempting to create a temporary table,
and if that fails, assuming it's turned off... Unless, is there any perl/DBI
way for me to interrogate the MySQL server to determine what version it is,
and whether or not "skip-innodb" has been turned on?
Thanks,
