For what its worth ( not a whole lot), my make test failed on those same
t/72childhandles ( AIX 5.2, perl 5.6?? -   i can verify tomorrow if wanted).
I decided to go on despite the errors and had no problems.....yet. Mostly
because Im in design/test phase.
my make install went without error.

Since most of the tests passed, if you're confident enough in the new DBI
you can
/usr/bin/perl -MCPAN -e 'force install "DBI"'
