Yes I am, in SqueakDBX. For latests Pharo images (closure images) you need
FFI-Kernel-ar.9 (the latest FFI version). You can simply evaluate:
ScriptLoader loadFFI.

Which OS are you using? I test it here in Windows and have the same results,
the image crash. In Linux I think I don't have this problem.

Andres, do you know what can be the problem?

Anyway, FFI is working well (without taking in mind FFI tests). I have
SqueakDBX perfectly working (and it uses FFI).

For ODBC: I can told you 2 things:

1) Search in this list because there was a topic about this in this week (
http://n2.nabble.com/ODBC-on-Pharo--td3152288.html#a3152288) and there
should be more.

2) You can try SqueakDBX instead of ODBC. It has not only an ODBC backend,
but also Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Sqlite3 and MS SQLServer. It also works
in Linux, Mac and Windows (depends on the database). And finally, when
possible, we use asynchronous queries so that to lock the VM as little as
possible. For further information, read our wiki:
http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/6052

Best,

Mariano
