RE: [INTERFACES] Possible error in libpg++ interface, date[time] fields.

My investigations show me that if null fields are present, nothing is
returned. Thus fields "right" of a null field will be moved left one field.

I think the same mighthappen if you use varchar strings instead of
fixed-length strings. If a string s is declared as char(n), and the actual
size of s is 2 and n >= 2, the next field will be moved n - 2 chars to the
left in the string that contains the result of the query.

fields.

Further experiments show that the row marks mentioned - NULL values in the
row, at least NULL values in fields _before_ the field in question.
