Description:
------------
Passing negative values to getColumnMeta() leads to segfault, due to missing check for negative values.

Same applies to PDO_POSTGRESQL as well (did not check other drivers, same problem may exist there)

Reproduce code:
---------------
Simple patch to fix the problem:

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the
end of next Sunday (CET) on pecl.php.net.

In case this was a pecl.php.net website problem, the change will show
up on the website in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PECL better.

Fixed in HEAD and PHP_5_1
