cygwin and InterBase 6.0

[Horák Daniel <horak at sit dot plzen-city dot cz>]

Hello,

I have a problem with linking InterBase client library with my program. I
was not able to use their import libraries (the MS C version uses a strange
first character (a small house?) in the symbol name) so I must link directly
with gds32.dll (the shared client library). And the problem is that when I
call isc_dsql_describe() function (from IB client API) my programs crashes
(with message from cygwin about "possibly corrupted stack"). I cannot say
that it really corrupts the stack but it corrupts data structures that are
passed into this function. But some other functions are working as expected.
Can this crash be caused by a wrong use of exported data from the DLL?

Has anybody experiences with Cygwin and InterBase?

cygwin 1.1.4
binutils 20000722-1
gcc 2.95.2-2
InterBase 6.01

I can send all the code (it is free) and also more details. It is a driver
based library for accessing DB servers and it is inspired by Perl DBI.
