I used the 'RETURNS PARAMETER N' for declaring UDFs and was instructed to not use it, but
to use malloc(). Then I was instructed to use ib_util_malloc() or my UDF will cause
InterBase to go boom in the night.

This is driving my crazy.

Is there a definative answer to using strings in UDFs that are thread-safe and not
deprecated?
