+Mono's OracleClient does handle large numbers with NUMBER(18) with
+Mono 1.1.4 and from svn.   However, it fails with the GetInt64 call. 
+It should be using IConvertible to get the value since internally all
+numbers are System.Decimal.
+
+In the meantime, try geting the value using GetDecimal or GetValue.
