I've just checked. There's a btparse-0.34 available which fixes this
bug.

Now I remember. Building these packages on OSX requires re-generating
all autotools-related files by running a sequence of commands which
isn't far from the sun dance ritual of the Cherokee. Please see the
libdbi-drivers list archive or the README.osx files in the packages
for the gory details.
