BTW, when you do call Oracle for support, DO NOT mention perl or else their answer will be "We do not support perl". I.e., reproduce the problem without using perl.

What's crazy is, most of the team didn't seem interested in whether or not it was an Oracle bug. "Just fix it!!"

This attitude bugs me. If it IS a bug, then they can maybe supply a patch, make the next version better, etc. Why pay money for support if you don't use it?

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
