Thanks John.
Well, it turns out that isn't the only problem I'm bumping into now. I
grabbed DBD-Oracle-1.17 and now I get this:
$ sha1sum Makefile.PL
ae25e59a71e0548a9996762d57f9fdcfcc752598 Makefile.PL
$ perl Makefile.PL -m /usr/share/oracle/11.1/client/demo.mk

Remember to actually *READ* the README file! Especially if you have
any problems.

WARNING: Oracle /usr/share/oracle/11.1/client/demo.mk doesn't define a
'build' rule.
WARNING: I will now try to guess how to build and link DBD::Oracle for you.
This kind of guess work is very error prone and
Oracle-version sensitive.
It is possible that it won't be supported in future versions
of DBD::Oracle.
*PLEASE* notify dbi-users about exactly _why_ you had to
build it this way.
invalid top directory at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/File/Find.pm line 585.
Looking at Find.pm, it just looks like the directory isn't being
passed properly(?)
$ vi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/File/Find.pm
[...]
583 sub _find_opt {
584 my $wanted = shift;
585 die "invalid top directory" unless defined $_[0];

Copying Makefile.PL from 1.17 to 1.16 and trying it yields the same
error. Other ideas are most appreciated!
