Oracle backend doesn't provide LOB functions: The large object handling functions are implemented but the Oracle backend doesn't offer them to applications. The necessary code in the oracle_odbx_result() functions isn't compiled as it segfaults when used. It's not clear why this happens and maybe a developer with more Oracle experience can make it work.

-; Firebird/Interbase backend doesn't find fbclient.dll : When adding -lfbclient as linker option, libtool complains that it can't find a valid library for -lfbclient. The workaround is to rename fbclient.dll to libfbclient.dll.
-; Firebird/Interbase backend doesn't link to libfbclient.dll : There's an issue regarding the __stdcall semantic of libfbclient.dll (function names are e.g. "isc_attach_database@24" instead of "isc_attach_database") which leads to unresolved symbols when trying to link the library. This might be either due to a missing .def file in the Firebird package or a problem of libtool which can't use the fbclient_ms.lib (or libfbclient_ms.lib after renaming) file when added as -lfbclient_ms.
-; MySQL backend creates a segfault at certain conditions : The MySQL backend compiles and links correctly but may create a segmentation fault depending on the libraries installed. It's not clear what libraries and versions are responsible for this problem.
