I'm using debian unstable, which means perl 5.6.1, so my system is a bit different. But one thing suggests itself to me: have you tried pushing the non-threaded module directory onto the include path list? You can alter @INC directly or (maybe preferably) add the line use lib qw(/usr/lib/perl5/5.005/i386-linux); Following this with "use DBI;" should work. This doesn't mean that the DBI module should work with threaded perl necessarily! A quick google search on perl-thread + dbi comes up with some possible leads.
