Bug Description

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.22/DBI.pm (xenial with latest updates) is buggy.
To test, simply run:

---schnipp---
#!/usr/bin/perl

require DBI;

my $dbfile = "/tmp/notifications_sqlite.dat";
my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SQLite:dbname=$dbfile",'','');
my $qu_attr = "SELECT * FROM notifications_attr WHERE keyref = '21';";
my $notifhr = $dbh->selectall_arrayref($qu, { Slice => {} });
---schnapp---

It seems, that this bug got already fixed upstream ~ 2 years ago with DBI version 1.635 (however, most recent version is 1.542).
