phpBB/db/oracle.php

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare sql_nextid() in /home/weblord/phpBB/db/oracle.php on line 405

I know is stupid!!!
Line 405
	function sql_nextid($query_id = 0)
	{
		if(!$query_id)
		{
			$query_id = $this->query_result;
		}
               -==foobar==-

oK if i am not right i think i quick patch it'll be erasing lines 405 to 438
because is repeating the same function twice as the fatal error says "Cannot redeclare sql_nextid()"
function sql_nextid($query_id = 0) << Is repeated twice.
