I've met this problem before. You need to make sure the Perl you use is compatible with the Oracle you have. And from the articles I read on the internet, you'd better to use same version of Perl to compile your DBI and other database modules. Looks like you got Oracle 10g so it should be 64 bit, but if you are using the Perl (version 5.8.4) that came with your Solaris 10, I suggest you to download the newest stable release of Perl for 64 bit and use this one to compile your modules, make sure this Perl's path is set ahead of the Solaris Perl in your environment. At least it worked for me, I actually recompiled my DBI first then DBD::Oracle.
Good luck!
