I am trying to install DBD-Oracle 1.23 with Oracle 10.1.4 on Solaris

I need to edit mk.pm and Makefile, replacing '-xarch=v9' with
'-xarch=native' and changing .../oracle/product/10.1.4/lib to
.../oracle/product/10.1.4/lib32 (see my previous report). It then
mostly works but reports two errors in the test-suite. The first one
in t/10general.t is relatively unimportant but I'm nore concerned about
the failure in t/58object.t.
$ perl -Mblib t/10general.t
1..31
not ok 1 - system exit 1 should return 256
not ok 2 - system exit 0 should return 0
ok 3 - preparse, case insensitive, placeholders in comments
...
These two tests fail because Oracle is setting a SIGCHLD handler so
the waitid(2) in system() is returning ECHILD
This isn't that unimportant. Unless you do something about it, you
won't be able to use system, backticks or the pipe forms of open
in scripts which use DBD::Oracle.
I believe you will only see this error if you are using the 'bequeather'
to connect to a server on the same host as the client. You can fix it
by adding
bequeath_detach = yes
to your sqlnet.ora file.
