You can download the Oracle Instant Client (or the full client) directly
from the Oracle website:

http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/index.html

You will need to create an account on their site, and agree to the license
agreement, which makes this a little more work than I would like, but otherwise
it is straight-forward.  I don't see any point in us distributing the same
client from the ActiveState website.

And even the instant client is way too large to include it in the default
ActivePerl distribution.

Cheers,
