Do you think it might be useful for us to know what kind of failure
it reports?

Not in my hands, it doesn't.
[~/perl_misc]$ perl
use Text::CSV;
my $x='foo,"CN=XX ,OU=XX,OU=XX,DC=XX,DC=XX",bar';
my $csv=Text::CSV->new();
if ($csv->parse($x)) {
print join "\t", $csv->fields();
} else {
die $csv->error_input;
};
__END__
foo CN=XX ,OU=XX,OU=XX,DC=XX,DC=XX bar
