Thanks for the complete test case. I've fixed this in CVS by unifying the
type info calculations between the two metadata classes. I've put up some
new jar files here:

I've applied a more limited cleanup to 8.0 and 8.1 that addresses some,
but not all of these issues, notably the internal type size is still
returned from DatabaseMetaData. The 8.2dev cleanup also involved some
other calculation changes that I'm not sure are wise to backport.
