Sorry, old man.  The hour, I suppose.

I see.  As you said in an earlier message, dbresults() doesn't return
NO_MORE_RESULTS (because there may be more) on receipt of a PRINT packet. 
Instead, it returns SUCCEED, with no result set.  A bit braindead, from
db-lib's point of view, if you ask me, but no matter.  bsqldb doesn't
check DBROWS(), so it eventually looks for (duh!) a rowcount.  Fair
enough.  

Thanks again for the patch.  Look for RC6 later this week.
