When building DBD::Oracle 1.16 the test t/40ph_type dumped core. FWIW,
I was trying to build the newer DBD::Oracle release to fix a coredump
in my own program that used FetchHashKeyName => 'NAME_lc' and
selectall_hashref(). I see that this test does the same thing - and the
stack traces are similar, some kind of bad free().

I am building with the 9.2.0.3 client libraries but connecting to Oracle
8.1.7.4.0. Attached is a gzipped transcript of the build and stack
trace.
