Ok here is the problem, we are trying to upgrade to 7.6 Linux 64bit system, the 
ARsperl 1.91 & 1.93 versions. I tried to install the ActiveState 32bit binary 
for my system and the ARSperl installed, but then my DBI and DBD:Oracle failed, 
with the classic message about my 32BIT libs, I can't use a 32bit Oracle client 
as its required by Remedy to have a 64bit client (I am guessing other modules 
will be messed up too). 

So then I tried a 64bit compile of perl in which all my modules that I need for 
scripts are fine but then ARSperl wont install with either the -m32 flags or 
trying to do a 64bit install. 

It baffles me that others are not having this issue, and that there is not a 
64bit ARSPerl out there yet, considering 64bit servers have been out for 
awhile. Is it true that BMC is not going to update there C-Libs after this 
release and that ARSPerl is essentially dead and this is why there is not a 
version out yet? We have over 250 scripts on our server mixed in with workflow. 
Ok, enough complaining. 

I haven't been able to compile a 32bit perl as of yet, but my only last thought 
is back in the HPUX days I would have to static compile a few modules while 
compiling Perl. But I have no idea the lib flags and everything I would need to 
pass it in order. 

Please help!
