The most likely problem with BCP is that the client is using the UTF8 
charset (default for linux for the last 4 or 5 years) and your server is 
probably iso_1.

You can do "unset LANG" and then run the blk tests again and things should 
work better.

I'll have to look at the bcp -Y option to see how that could be 
implemented at the sybperl level for a future release.

Thanks Michael -- it was indeed an env.issue (gee, it's been a *long* time
since I installed Sybperl etc).

However, I'm now running into an problem with the BCP test.
Is there a way to work around this problem? Modifying 4_blk.t may help but
that's going to give headaches later, I reckon...

Any hints appreciated!

Thanks,

Rob V.
