Attached is a small tar.gz file containing a short perl DBI
connection script that repeatedly demonstrates this problem.
There are also two log files containing tusc output (an HP
syscall trace utility), one for the 32-bit run (which works) and
another for the 64-bit run (which fails). I haven't made much
sense of it yet, so any help deciphering is appreciated.

TIA.
