Apologies if it seems this change is stalled, I've been extremely busy
attempting to keep the wolf from the door. I will be back on it to
finish it in the next few days. I've so far:

o documented change in trunk for bind_col (edited by Tim)
o documented change in trunk for DBI::DBD
o fixed a problem in sql_type_cast
o written test cases for sql_type_cast in trunk

As far as I am aware there are four outstanding issues:

o 2 of the tests I submitted fail - sql_type_cast for double - I got
some input from perl monks and some guidance from Tim but I've not
properly looked at any of it yet.
o I've not posted a revised patch for DBD::Oracle using this stuff.
o I've not changed DBD::ODBC (which will wait until DBD::Oracle is
finalised)
o I've not got a commit bit on DBD::Oracle - not the end of the world as
I'll post a patch but it would be nice.

Sorry about lack of progress but I've been /really/ busy with paid work
and with bugs in other Perl modules that were more important to our
project right now.
