It's possible that the client drivers you're using weren't updated to
reflect the unlimited tuple size in 7.1. I know this happened with
the Perl driver just before 7.1 came out (ie it checked the tuple size
on the client end and barfed if it was over 8k), but I'm not sure
whether it was fixed in the release version. Don't know anything
about the CF client (I assume that's OBDC) but it may have a similar
problem.
