As far as I can see it's rather reason 2: execute_for_fetch seems to fill the 
array incorrectly, that is: it's a valid array, but the last value added to it 
also seems to overwrite previously added values.

Hmm - see below

I seem to have found a workaround but my perl knowledge is too limited to evaluate if it's a good one.

I'm no guru myself...

When I replace
my $fetch_tuple_sub = sub { $sel->fetchrow_arrayref };
by
my $fetch_tuple_sub = sub { my $ary_ref = $sel->fetchrow_arrayref;
  print "my method: ".$dbh_pg->errstr."\n" if $dbh_pg->err;
  return $ary_ref;
 };
then the expected exception messages get printed.
Is this a acceptable way to do it in your opinion?

Looks OK to me, except you'll not get any error message on the last row - the insert will be called after the fetch.


I've had a quick look at my copy of DBI.pm (Debian Etch - lives in /usr/lib/perl5/DBI.pm)

Around line 1930, we have the error-handling for execute_for_fetch()

else {
  $err_count++;
  my $err = $sth->err;
push @$tuple_status, [ $err, $errstr_cache{$err} ||= $sth->errstr, $sth->state ];
...

Notice how it's taking a copy of the error code ("my $err = ") but not the error-string? What happens if you change the code to take a copy of sth->errstr too:

  my ($err,$errstr) = ($sth->err, $sth->errstr);
push @$tuple_status, [ $err, $errstr_cache{$err} ||= $errstr, $sth->state];
