Thank you for the trace. It looks line another bug revealed buy using
big endian hardware. I attach another patch, which I think will
fix the problem. This patch is independent of the previous one, since
it patches a different source file.

I will again be grateful if you can report back on this patch.

I will mention this to John Scoles, the maintainer of DBD::Oracle,
when I report the problems you have found.
