Paul indeed identified the issue. If you use SetFrom(), it will not manage to 
match the target field names with the source ones, because CreateField() has 
done the field name truncation. ogr2ogr builds an integer map from the source 
field index to the target field index and uses SetFromWithMap(). You can have a 
look at swig/python/samples/ogr2ogr.py.
In the simple case (for drivers that don't have compulsory fields already 
created at layer creation), the map is the identity, i.e. panMap[i] = i with i 
from 0 to nFieldCount - 1.
