You cannot link a 32 bit library (i386) to a 64 bit executable (x86_64).
You need to get a 64-bit version of oracle client (or a 32 bit version
of perl). AFAIK the express edition is only available for 32 bit linux,
so you need to get a standard or enterprise edition.
I just got 10201_client_linux_x86_64.cpio (whatever that is :-)) to
work. It needs two extra libraries in LDLOADLIBS:
LDLOADLIBS = -L/ora/app/oracle/product/client/lib -lclntsh -ldl -lm -lpthread
-lnsl -lirc -lnnz10 -ln10
but I haven't yet figured out a patch for Makefile.PL ...
