Subject: Bug in interbase.c "invalid BLOB ID"
From: BenjaminSchwarze@TheUnknownOnes.net (Benjamin Schwarze)

Hi!

As some other users recognized, there is a bug in the implementation of 
the function "_php_ibase_quad_to_string". (imho since version 5.2.1)

The line
"spprintf(&result, BLOB_ID_LEN+1, "0x%0*" LL_MASK "x", 16, 
*(ISC_UINT64*)(void *) &qd);"
doesnt work as estimated. The result  stored inside qd isnt the value 
convertet from the string, but something else. Normally this should 
work, but it doesnt.

One possible solution is, to change the line into
"spprintf(&result,  BLOB_ID_LEN+1, "0x%0*x%0*x", 8, qd.gds_quad_low, 8, 
qd.gds_quad_high);"

Of course, there might be a smarter way, but this solution worked for 
me. My system is a Fedora Core 8 64bit.
