Cc: the vms-ingres mailing list, which may have an interest.  (Reprise:
I had a problem compiling the perl database interface module DBD-Ingres
on VMS).

I figured this out.  The rest of my perl installation was compiled
/debug/noopt, the dbd-ingres module was compiled with /optimize.

Changing the optimization flags in the Makefile.PL did the trick.

Now - this should make it into the mailing list archives for the next
time I screw it up. :-)

For my next trick - now that I have an updated perl environment compiled
with /debug, I can try to remember how to cause the VMS debugger to
break on entry into a module which hasn't been loaded yet, and thus get
useful debugging info on the VMS-Queue module to Dan S.

Thanks,
