Which sqltype value is provided by isc_dsql_prepare/describe_bind is irrelevant as

But 99.9% existing (at the moment) applications cannot override unknown for them data

In the past such incompatibilities used to be handled with a configuration
parameter.
I don't mind MS SQL way with tons of SET options but they used to complicate support
and troubleshooting.
