We had a similar problem with the DBD::ODBC. If I recall correctly, it was the value that was returned that caused this problem, so it was only on SELECT statements. Our solution was to pass LongTruncOk => 1 in the hash reference that you pass into your connect string. I didn't solve this problem, so I'm not sure what effect it truly has. But, if it's any assistance, I'm glad to help.

ALL HAIL BRAK!!!
