    Thanks to Martin for pointing this out. We did reply to him but apparently
    not before his posting. This issue will be fixed in our next scheduled
    maintenance release, available in two to three weeks.
    
    In the meantime, we recommend that you grant execute permissions on
    Lumigent's extended stored procedures to trusted logins only (a useful
    policy in any case).
    This prevents untrusted users from invoking stored procedures with
    malicious intent.
    
    Thanks,
    --Murray
