I'm using DBI with Oracle 8.1.6.  Does anyone know if you can use
placeholders with DDL statments, such as:

  CREATE TABLE FOO AS SELECT * FROM BAR WHERE name = ?

I get an Oracle ORA-01036 error (illegal variable name/number) 
which suggests it can't be done.  A DBA here thinks it should only
fail on older Oracle versions.  I have not found any definitive
answers in the Oracle docs we have or on the web so far.
