Well, damn. That's what I get for not reading carefully.
Anyway, just because the debugging messages say it's loading in
ingres.exe;6 that doesn't mean that's what's getting loaded.
LIB$FIND_IMAGE_SYMBOL does clever things for you, and might well be using
an installed INGRES.EXE, or vectoring off an INGRES logical. (Though it's
unlikely to be one from another version of perl)
Just out of curiosity, was the Ingres library the one that required IEEE
floats rather than the default Alpha floats? I can't tell if that option
was set for the main perl build. (Though I doubt it'd cause this error, you
never know...)
