Christian,

Argg!  These mixed 32bit/64bit issues drive me nuts.

It has been suggested to me that all the configure options like --with-oci
should really include separate options to override the default include
and lib directives.  I think that would be the fix.  I'm not inclined to
add extra "auto-discover" logic for this.

For now, hand editing the GDALmake.opt afterwards is the suggested
solution.

Best regards,
