Can I safely assume that the OID of the standard data types remain the same
for future releases? And of course that they are the same for every
installation?

I've been send a patch to speed up ecpg significantly by not looking up
datatypes everytime. As it is written right now it works by har coding some
types. I wonder if this will create problems.
