Let's say we have a table with two entries:

name    nr
----------
foo    1
bar    2

and a C program doing the following:

...
i=1;
exec sql declare C cursor for select name from table where nr=:i;
i=2;
exec sql open C;
...

Which row will be selected?

I guess I'll try Oracle as soon as I find time.

Things should evaluate at the "open". I recall that the cursor
declaration is allowed to happen up in the declarations section of the
program or routine (at least on my old Ingres installation)...

This is also how it works with Oracle.
