building DB_File with BerkleyDB in 64 bit mode on Solaris 5.8

I am having a little trouble getting DB_File 1.808 to work with
BerkleyDB4.2.52 and perl 5.8.0 when building in 64 bit mode on
Solaris 5.8.

When running the make test it fails with the message
"Tie failed: Not enough space".

It is not at all clear to me if this will resolve to a perl, BerkleyDB
or DB_File problem.

I have built tcl as a 64 bit shell so that i can run the BerkleyDB
tests to validate the 64 bit BerkleyDB build. The basic tests work
but I suspect that there is a syntax error in the test routines as all
the handle checking seems to fail.

I have both gcc and cc available on my system. DB_File does not seem
to compile with cc ( has trouble with perl include files) but compiles
silently with gcc.
