Aren't the Oracle driver libraries backward compatible? If you link DBD to
the Oracle 11 drivers

My workplace is transitioning from Oracle version 9 to version 11. I
would like to build the DBD driver to support connecting to the Oracle
11 database
I might be overlooking something in your requirements, but this is a
response that I had previously sent to someone on the list regarding
migration concerns:
I'm going through a migration now and had to recompile DBD-Oracle
against the new ORACLE_HOME.
I wanted to leave the old DBD-Oracle
Aren't the Oracle driver libraries backward compatible? If you link DBD to
the Oracle 11 drivers, won't it still be able to connect to an Oracle 8
server?

My workplace is transitioning from Oracle version 9 to version 11. I
would like to build the DBD driver to support connecting to the Oracle
11 database. However, until all the data are migrated from the old
database to the new one, I would need to maintain connectivity to the
old Oracle 9
