By the way, a run under Purify noticed that the variable
var->internalFetchNum (used to check that the LOB variable is in sync
with the cursor) is not initialized.
This cannot produce any bug - this number is only incremented and
compared with previous values, so the initial value does not matter.

But I suggest that someone add the following line to the function
Variable_New in Variable.c

    var->internalFetchNum=0;
