I haven't followed this thread too closely, so maybe I'm missing
something, but isn't this essentially what you need to do?
# cat /tmp/test.csv
1,"testing 123,456","hello world",42
create table testcsv(id int, f1 text, f2 text, f3 int);
copy testcsv from '/tmp/test.csv' with csv delimiter ',' quote '"';
select * from testcsv;
id | f1 | f2 | f3
----+-----------------+-------------+----
1 | testing 123,456 | hello world | 42
(1 row)
HTH,
