I would be tempted to use Java for this rather than C.
Much more portable than external procedures, an important distinction
in a heterogenous shop.

I'd suggest to consider external C function -- it's faster, it's
easier to write especially when you need to work with bits, shifts
etc.. I've recently implemented crc32 for some internal project --
works well, obviously faster than SQL, PL/SQL and native comp of
PL/SQL code. Native comp. is also good to consider, if it's 9i.
Sure, it depends...
