This is not unexpected and really needs documenting and perhaps even a
note adding to those tests when they fail. See
http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.dbi.dev/2012/02/msg6837.html and
http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.dbi.users/2009/06/msg34010.html for
detailed explanations.
It you need to continue using a bequeather to connect to a server on the
same host as the client add
bequeath_detach = yes
to your sqlnet.ora file or you won't be able to safely use fork/system
functions in Perl.
I'll leave this rt here as a reminder we need to document this and add a
"note" when the tests fail. We can perhaps pull the info required from
the postings I refer to above.
