[fpc-pascal]longint -> Pchar

[baron kractor]

Got that particular issue fixed. Now I'm having some issues w/ really
strange query results being returned. Even with the example code that came
w/ the version of fpc that I'm using, I get the following results from a
query that should return 0 or nil ...

	Number of records returned  : 8589934592
	Number of fields per record : 0

Talked to some people, and it was suggested that perhaps the version of
libmysql.dll I'm using doesn't match the version of mysql that the program
is accessing. The machine that's hosting the mysqld is running openbsd 3.4,
and the output of "mysql --version" results in the following ...

	mysql  Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.57, for unknown-openbsd3.4 (i386)

Anyone else had this problem before?

You always need a conversion. Either str() (in system) or sysutils.inttostr.

The memory layout of a string and longint is not the same.
