It's hard to keep every database on every platform available, especially
when customers don't like to have their platforms dictated to them. I
ended up having to acquire new hardware to get a linux 9iR2 instance
up. Sorry it took so long.

Of course. Attached is a small, (but not terribly clean) test script
that runs fine against 1.15/9iR2 and fails two tests against 1.16/9iR2.
Apparently, DBD::Oracle gets unhappy if the utf8 flag is turned on
manually using Encode. Knowing this, I can now work around the issue,
but it would be cool if the issue could either be addressed in the docs
or code, as I've seen a number of other users running into this in
various fora online.
