Did I say I expect Perl to do the right thing? :-)

Instant client (Score:2)
Another observation: use Oracle's instant client, and put it in a directory that doesn't look anything like the lib/lib32 confusion, and you'll also get around this much easier. Unfortunately, instant client appears to require setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Re:Instant client (Score:2)
In order to compile Oracle.so such that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not required, rerun the gcc line that created Oracle.so and add "-lnnz10" to the end. Oracle created libclntsh.so such that it requires LD_LIBRARY_PATH in order to find libnnz10. Adding this option tells the linker to go ahead and link libnnz10 directly into Oracle.so, which enables the runtime linker to find it without LD_LIBRARY_PATH telling it where to look.
Sigh...
