Can't reproduce the problem with current sources.

I could successfully insert and select a boolean type to/from the
database using:

PreparedStatement.setBoolean(), ResultSet.getBoolean()
as well as
PreparedStatement.setObject(), ResultSet.getObject() 

It therefore appears that this is no longer a problem.

thanks,
