Ok - here's another attempt:
my $prefix = "EXPLAIN PLAN SET STATEMENT_ID = '$$' FOR ";
my $sql = "SELECT * FROM TRANSACTION_HISTORY WHERE ACCOUNT_ID = :1";
my @params = qw(v8799);
$dbh->do("$prefix$sql", undef, @params);
which yields:
ORA-01036: illegal variable name/number (DBD ERROR: OCIBindByName)
[for Statement "EXPLAIN PLAN SET STATEMENT_ID = '25287' FOR SELECT *
FROM TRANSACTION_HISTORY WHERE ACCOUNT_ID = :1"]
