If I change unsigned long to ulong in struct myconn, the error appears then in
this line which leads me to the conclusion that ulong is undefined.
On the other side I can't reproduce the error with a small sample program
including in all the header files that appear in mysqlbackend.{h,c}
I'm a little bit at a loss with this problem now :-(
