[Mono-list] Problem with Oracle and Mono Charset...

[Daniel Morgan]

I added a function to named GetNlsInfo which platform invokes into 
OCINlsGetInfo(). 

This can be used to get the NLS Language stuff, translate that culture 
info to System.Globalization.CulturInfo, and then make use of it in the 
OracleClient.
