DCOracle2 + Oracle9i stored procedure error

Ok, this looks like an Oracle issue, not a Python one. First, if you
want to return something in Oracle, you must define it as a function,
not a procedure. Second, there are some issues with Oracle 9i and the
OCI which I have discovered in the development of cx_Oracle (another
Python database access module for Oracle) and this might be one of them.
I have tried this with cx_Oracle and it works so if you want to give
that a try instead, let me know.
