Hi,

The message is

   > junk <- paste(sample(letters, size=5000, replace=T), collapse="")

   > rs <- dbSendQuery(con, junk)
   Error in oraPrepareStatement(con, statement, bind = NULL) : 
      RS-DBI driver: (too long a statement -- it must has less than 4000 chars)

so I wouldn't call it a bug -- the message clearly states what's causing
the problem.  You can easily change line 58 in RS-Oracle.h,

   #define RS_ORA_STATEMENT_LEN  4000    /* dynamic statement length */

to some other constant and re-install.  But make sure that the new limit
you pick doesn't overflow any Oracle's own buffers -- for this you'll
need to look at the Oracle Pro C/C++ Programmer's Reference Manual.

Regards,
