I'm trying to install Apache::DBI and I get the following error during testing.

I knew enought to exit cpan and edit the test file to turn on more verbose debugging but I'm not clueful enough to figure out why the $thread1 and $thread2 differ when quering a MySQL instance.

I'm using a RH8.0 system with Perl installed to $HOME/bin/perl-5.8.0 and have $PATH setup accordingly. (RH's perl RPM give me big headaches and a virgin source build usually yields better results)

MySQL and Apache are from the RH RPM's
