Please refer to my post from yesterday asking that the answers to this
be added to the FAQ - the subject line is "Perl & Postgres".

It is very similar to what I went through myself recently with mod_perl,
perl, apache, and postgres.  I'd recommend compiling Perl, Postgres, the
DBD-95, and/or DBIx from scratch and not using binaries, as well.  If
you are planning to use this as a web application, I highly recommend
adding Apache Toolkit to the mix.  --->>Patch your OS to bring it
current, and it should work like a charm.  It should also at least
partially configure itself, which is bonus.  You can install mod_perl,
registry, and fastcgi from toolkit all in one fell swoop.  

HTH,

Jimi
