I will try again when the need arises and/or when I find time :^)

You, the author of DBI-Link, know more about DBI than I do.
My guess: No.
You cannot pass the desired codepage to Oracle client at connect
time.
The only possible way to tell Oracle client what codepage you want
is with the environment variable NLS_LANG. Also, you cannot change
the client codepage during a session. Don't ask me why they
designed it that way.
