Perl DBI:DBD and Oracle8 LOBs

has anyone out there written code to successfully manipulate Oracle8 CLOBS (or more generally LOBs) using DBD::Oracle?  in particular, i'm looking for code i'm guessing looks similar to that provided recently for working with long and longraw datatypes, but specific to the structure of how internal LOBs are stored as "locators" accessible via DBMS_LOB package functions working on that locator.

bottom line problem to be solved:  getting a CLOB value from an Oracle8 database into a perl array.

any help would be appreciated.
