Yes, that could be the problem.

I'm always reluctant to change the DBISTATE_VERSION (as it forces
a rebuild of all drivers) so I try to keep changes forward-compatible.
The problem here is using a driver built with a newer DBI than
the old it ends up being used with. I'll look into catching that situation.

Yes, yes. I agree! A plan (and some action) would be very good here.

dbi.perl.org is being revamped by Ilya and we might just be able
to use that as a home for AS builds of DBI/DBDs. I'll ask.
