"I fixed/worked around a bug in Firebird that has to do with a bogus error
when extracting metadata from a database. Seems the internal buffers get
messed up after the first use of the SQLDA/SQLVAR buffers of the query to
retreive the constraints information from the system tables. Simply
unpreparing the cursor to get this data each time avoids the error. It
doesn't run as fast, but at least it runs."

I appreciate this, but I wonder if I would have expected the buffers to
maintain integrity during these operations. I have a feeling that I would
have expected to do a re-prepare anyway.
