As I found out recently, ECPG is not thread-safe. This is a problem for us, as 
we really need to be able to use ECPG* in a multi-threaded C application. 
Michael mentioned that Lee is working on fixing these problems, but was not 
sure when it would be complete. 

So, my questions are: 
Lee/anyone, do you have an estimated completion date? 
If not, can we (myself plus a "real" C programmer) help you?

Regards, Philip Yarra.

* Yes, we could use libpq, but ECPG minimises our porting from Informix. 
Rewriting everything to use libpq would be too expensive.
