Hit this from a different angle, via request tracker using oracle-client 
and Net::LDAP.

In my opinion the bug's really with the oracle client. I was able to work 
around this by setting

	LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

before launching the application. That doesn't seem to have hurt. I should 
add, I've no idea if the oracle-client is actually attempting to use its 
internal SSL library or not in its connection. It's quite possible that if 
it does, then this workaround will cause a segfault somewhere under 
DBD::Oracle rather than IO::Socket::SSL.
