Description:
'm using MyODBC 3.51.06, unixODBC 2.2.3, MySQL 3.23.58 and Conectiva
Linux 8.0.

Random changes of the decimal point occur when 2 environment handles are
used.

SQLAllocHandle() calls my_SQLAllocEnv() that calls myodbc_init().
myodbc_init() sets myodbc_inited=1 and alloc default_locale.

Calling SQLAllocHandle() again, myodbc_init verify myodbc_inited and
return.

Now, SQLFreeHandle() calls my_SQLFreeEnv() hat calls myodbc_end().
myodbc_end() verify myodbc_inited, and free default_locale.

If SQLGetData(), SQLFetch() or functions that call insert_params() are
called with the first handle, then freed default_locale is used.

I'm sending a patch adding a counter in myodbc_init()/end().

How to repeat:
A patch was sent to [e-mail] and [e-mail]

Suggested fix:
See above need patch from monty or venu

Cannot repeat on Windows w/3.51.12. See attached test case. I have not attempted to look into the driver code in regards to this issue.

Note that we added reference counting for initialization as a fix for a different bug, but it ends up taking care of this one too.
