   Do you mean grabbing an rpm?  To make a compiled port, I would need 
   a linux gcc.  I compile my own Perls, since I like to use/test the 
   latest versions as well as modules.  I need to the linux version to
   compile DBD::Oracle, which uses Oracle's oci.  I make a link in 
   /usr/local/bin, perll, which points to the linux compiled perl in 
   compat.  If I need to run code that uses DBD::Oracle I use the perll
   to run it.   I could just make a wrapper script that does a chroot 
   and runs in the gentoo env.

  No, this was external C code to process data in & out of Oracle.
  I don't use pro 'C' any more so this is not an issue for me.
