Alright man, you've got me confused. Are you saying that despite the
existance of INT8 as a column type, and PreparedStatement.setLong(), that
these ought not be used? If so, there is a really big warning missing
from the documentation!

I guess I'm asking this: I've got an enterprise database runnign 7.0.3
ready to go using INT8 primary keys and being accessed through my
re-touched JDBC driver. Am I screwed? Is it going to break? If so, I
need to fix this all very, very fast.
