Any and all testing would be greatly appreciated, but especially
testing of building against Oracle Instant Client on a range of platforms.

There are two warnings that may appear, 'OCIObjectGetAttr' and 'OCIObjectPin' as 'undefined'. This appears to be bug in Oracle code while annoying it does not seem to cause any problems. This is a 'Big' release with two new features
1) Support for OCI Array bind and
2) Support for Select of OCI Embedded Objects

See the pod for details on these new features.

As well DBD::Oracle now requires that you use DBI 1.51 or later as a number of 
the new features require it.

Thanks!

John Scoles
