        There is a workaround to this bug, if the patch is not avaiable for the platform (like me, with my 7.3.2.2 database in Digital Unix).

        The workaround is relink the database with the "Spatial Data Option" installed. Believe me, it works!

        But I'm upgrading to 7.3.2.3. The 7.3.3 version to Digital Unix just after April or May... :-(
