Where I work we have a variety of versions of Oracle installed in
various possible values of $ORACLE_HOME.  It is necessary to have the
environment variable $ORACLE_HOME match the version under which
DBD::Oracle was compiled, in order for it to work.  For example, if
$ORACLE_HOME points to an 8.0.6 directory but DBD::Oracle was linked
with 8.1.6, we get a rude segmentation fault.

It would be nice to be able to find out which version of Oracle the
DBD::Oracle was linked against so that we can give a more meaningful
error message in this scenario.

Any advice would be helpful.
