ok, I've just asked Gonzalo (one of the Mono hackers), and he told me to
try this: in gda-value.h, right now, there is:

typedef struct {
        GdaValueType type;
        union {
                gint64 v_bigint;
                guint64 v_biguint;
                gpointer v_binary;
                GdaBlob v_blob;
                gboolean v_boolean;
                GdaDate v_date;
                gdouble v_double;
                GdaGeometricPoint v_point;
                GObject *v_gobj;
                gint v_integer;
                GdaValueList *v_list;
                GdaMoney v_money;
                GdaNumeric v_numeric;
                gfloat v_single;
                gshort v_smallint;
                gushort v_smalluint;
                gchar *v_string;
                GdaTime v_time;
                GdaTimestamp v_timestamp;
                gchar v_tinyint;
                guchar v_tinyuint;
                GdaValueType v_type;
                guint v_uinteger;
        } value;
        glong binary_length;
} GdaValue;

Could you change it to do:

typedef struct _GdaValue GdaValue;
struct _GdaValue {
	....
}

That could make the parser read the struct correctly, as Gonzalo says.
Can you try it and let us know if that's the case? If so, I'll commit
the change to CVS for both 1.2 and 1.3.x versions.
