Can you provide a self-contained test case? There is a test case that 
uses SQLBindCol with SQL_C_VARBOOKMARK, in the regression test suite, 
and it's been working fine:


https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=psqlodbc.git;a=blob;f=test/src/bookmark-test.c;h=ccdfa5e8428900bae4264c581774a8c6c2d34b80;hb=HEAD#l108

If you could reproduce the crash with some changes to that test program, 
that would help a lot.
