It looks like you've done something strange.
What version of HPUX are you on?
/opt/perl_32 is normally the 32-bit perl that comes installed on hpux 11
and higher. It's compiled with HP's ansi-C compiler.
You are trying to compile DBI using gcc.
Have you overwritten HP's perl with your own version recompiled with gcc
or are you just forcing gcc to be used for DBI? If the latter, that's
probably your problem since perl and DBI need to be compiled using the
same compiler.
