The problem is that a procedure was retrieving values into some int and double pointers. I don't recall reading that this was not kosher in our manual...

code example:
int proc_will_break(int *oops)
{

    exec sql begin declare section;

        int *ptr = oops;
    exec sql end declare section;

    select 1 into :*ptr from dual;
}

No, it's not my favorite style of coding, but the particular program I'm converting has a ton of that sort of thing. At least now I know what's happening!
