DBD:mysql 3.0001 and 3.0001_3 Released

[Patrick Galbraith]

Version 3.0001_3 Dev release and Version 3.0001 DBD::mysql, the perl 
DBI interface to MySQL,
have just been released.

Version 3.0001 is a production version with server-side prepared 
statements turned off by default during 'make test', and version 
3.0001_3 is a development version with server-side prepared statements 
turned on during 'make test'. Even though the code supports server side 
prepared statements, you must have version 4.1.3 of MySQL for them to 
work, otherwise the driver simply emulates prepared statements.

With any new version, there are issues that have to be ironed out, and 
I realise that many of you have found some issues since the release of 
3.0000, and I'm extremely grateful for the feedback that I've been 
getting in solving many of these problems.

Thanks to:

Brad Choate, Six Apart Ltd. - Reporting and sending me a test script 
that revealed the bug where updating and inserting escaped double and 
single quotes would cause segfault

Anup Singh and Tom Parkison - Reporting the issue with problems when 
compiling against client versions less than 4.1.3

Please, if anyone has any problems or questions with the driver, please 
feel free to email me, or especially post to dbi-users@stripped (if you 
are subscribed of course!), and if you find bugs, please report them to 
http://bugs.mysql.com
