I mean that the datapump (data migration wizard) try to convert a memo
field (from a px table) to lo (I guess asking to the driver) and fail
to do it, but when you tell to datapump 'hey, convert the memo fields
to varchar' it success.

This is not a big problem for me, because the workaround is very easy,
but the default behavior is failing.
