Thats why you don't allocate memory in one module and deallocate it in another.
If the OCI.dll needs this, then it's a crappy interface. (Yes, I know, not very helpful here, sorry.)
Maybe you can come up with a workaround where the memory stuff is kept to each module.
You could post a few code snippets, maybe we find a path to the light :-)
