When I try this I get the following when I specify in the script to use this
routine (use GDBM_File):

Can't load module GDBM_File, dynamic loading not available in this perl.
  (You may need to build a new perl executable which either supports
  dynamic loading or has the GDBM_File module statically linked into it.).

      Yes, you can. Either work in /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/ext/GDBM_File,
      or copy the contents of that directory into another empty working
      directory. Then cd there.

      perl Makefile.PL
      make
      sudo make install

      Then you should be done.

      Regards, Felix.
