Best of luck!

The technique I use for the Perl5 oracle interface is to extract a section of $ORACLE_HOME/proc/demo/proc.mk into my makefile.

So far this has been tried on:
Solaris 1 and 2, HP-UX 9, Unisys U6000/300, SCO 3, Sequent DYNIX/ptx 2, Motorola M88100 (SVR3.2), DEC UNIX 3.2, DEC Alpha, OSF/1 v2, SGI Iris Indigo R4000 Irix 5.3, for assorted Oracle 7 versions.

Take a look in ftp.demon.co.uk:/pub/perl/DBD/Oracle/DBD-Oracle-0.24.tar.Z at the Makefile.PL file (it'll make much more sence if you knwo Perl5 :-).
