The open source version of DBD::Teradata is a cut down version and I
doubt this would be the only problem with it. Have you tried the
licenced version? If that doesn't work then probably best to report it
to the authors.

Otherwise, I'd do a bteq export in CSV format and reload using COPY.
It's likely to be faster too.
