Uh, Tom, the Pg module works for me under Perl _5.00503_. The test.pl
script completes and all that. The key is building the module with the
version of perl that the module is going to run against (and rebuilding
the module when you upgrade perl). This is not a great issue unless you
are packaging binaries, though...
It ain't broke (at least on RedHat 6.x with the RPM installation). I
don't necessarily think that the Pg module is at fault here. Of course,
I reserve the right to be totally wrong and will, at my own expense,
perform a podondectomy on myself. (that is, surgically remove my foot
from my mouth).
