As you mentioned, I feel the embeded SQL technology has
many compatibility challenges to port applications.
So now I'm thinking how we can hold such compatibility
tips or tricks in the manual.
I'm interested in having the "Compatibility" section
to gather compatibility information which depends on
several RDBMSes, like "Informix compatibility mode" section.
If it could be helpful, I will try it.
I have to work on SQLDA stuffs to clarify its usage,
because I heard that the PostgreSQL SQLDA is not compatible
with Oracle's one, it's compatible with others
(DB2? Sorry if it's wrong).
Thus, the PostgreSQL ECPG is currently a mixture of several
RDBMSes, so I want to clarify the spec and its compatibility.
I guess it could be helpful for application developers. :)

I will check this, and modify the manual if we need.
