Unfortunately I discovered a problem in the patch and just attached a
new version to that ticket. The driver API in libdbi supports 3 byte
integers which are a rather unusual data type. I'm not sure how much
they are used, but my previous patch didn't handle them consistently
with the rest of the code. I also discovered another endian bug in
the Oracle driver which I didn't fix, but I doubt many people are
using Oracle with GnuCash yet.
