I am trying to install DBI 1.38 with Perl 5.8 on AIX 5.1. When I run make
test, I receive the following errors:

I have tried a number of different options, done numerous google searches,
but have not been able to get past this error. Any assistance (please
reply to eborden@na.ko.com), would be greatly appreciated:

Here is the output from the other steps.
<oracle><ORA817>$ perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=$DBA_HOME/perl/bin/DBI-Oracle

*** Note:
    The optional PlRPC-modules (RPC::PlServer etc) are not installed.
    If you want to use the DBD::Proxy driver and DBI::ProxyServer
    modules, then you'll need to install the RPC::PlServer, RPC::PlClient,
    Storable and Net::Daemon modules. The CPAN Bundle::DBI may help you.
    You can install them any time after installing the DBI.
    You do *not* need these modules for typical DBI usage.

Optional modules are available from any CPAN mirror, in particular
