The following is not immediately obvious:

If you need the number of columns in a REF CURSOR returned from a PL/SQL procedure, you need to use OCINumColumns() on the cursor handle returned by OCINewCursor after it is bound and executed, not the statement handle. Same applies for OCIColumnName() and friends.
