Note that the test vs. byte, int, etc will never fire, because arrays
of primitive types are not instanceof Object[]

Can we do anything better when given, say, an Object[] (not Integer[])
that contains only Integer instances?
Not sure if you can do anything sensible here, since an Object[] could
also contain a heterogeneous mix of types.

There seems to be some duplication between determineSQLType() and the
switch in setObject().
