This currently can't be done with the COPY command directly.  There are
a couple of options:

#1- Have a single table with a trigger on it that does this for you
#2- Write a simple perl script which does this for you
#3- Load the data into one table and then use SQL to move it to the
    other tables (which you would need to create first)

Enjoy,
