I have a file that is  encoded in utf-8.  When I read it into a Java string

when I try to do the same thing in perl.  I can read the file in (and if I
send it out through a cgi, the characters display properly in a browser),
but it does not get written properly to the database.

Is what I am trying to do currently supported? 

Not with perl5.6.0 or perl5.7.0 no.
At present perl5.6.1 is not planned to support this either.
perl5.7.1 will.

Is it a perl issue (I'm
using perl 5.6), a
DBD:Oracle issue, or neither?

It could be just a perl issue, but DBD::Oracle might 
need tweaks too.
