I have already worked through the...

Well, I did see that :)

The error I'm getting is because an invalid line is being generated (i.e., INFORMIXC='C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe esqlld' ESQLLD=..) which is not a valid command. I need to find out where/how this line is generated and how to correct it.

You noticed that? Have you heard of grep/ack? http://search.cpan.org/grep?cpanid=JOHNL&release=DBD-Informix-2011.0612&string=INFORMIXC&i=1&n=1&C=0

Makefile.PL 282: which recognizes the INFORMIXC environment variable. 637: $EV = [ "INFORMIXC=$Config{perlpath} esqlcc", "ESQLCC=$Con +fig{cc}" ]; 681:# INFORMIXC to define the loader and the LDDLFLAGS via the back do +or. 699:$opts{LD} = "INFORMIXC='\$(FULLPERL) esqlld' " . 936: ESQL_CC = INFORMIXC="$(FULLPERL) esqlcc" ESQLCC="$(CC) +" $(ESQL) 1006:# the INFORMIXC environment variable. 1016: if (/^CC=/o && !/INFORMIXC/o) 1018: print LOCAL "# INFORMIXC added by Makefile.PL for $pk +g.\n"; 1022: $_ = 'CC="${INFORMIXC:-' . $_ . "}\"\n";

Now you know, its in Makefile.PL
