The usertype one looks good.  Another unknown down.

The locale one needs to be ditch the interCaps variable before 
commiting but is fundamentally sound.

The capabilities change looks good (my guess is that OC 12.x has added a 
few capabilities, long varchars being one that I know of) in principle, 
but I'm a bit weary of making changes on the wire this late in the game.
I'm afraid to say, while a good patch, this is 0.61 fodder.

I'm not going to be able to commit these until tomorrow evening sometime, 
so if you want to....

I think i have a line of this.  Perl seems to rely on the bound variable 
being space filled, Freddys unittest fails on my machine for exactly that 
reason, just fighting some ghosts in the machine right now, once that is 
straightened out i think I'll have it.

I'd like to have this at least working as well as it was in 0.53.  I think 
we'll be seeing a mature ODBC in the coming months.

tag it with R0_60 and then we'll just moving the tags for any problem 
files that appear.
