Neither Kevin Atkinson nor Sinisa Milivojevic has yet responded to my 
question about documentation licensing, and I was hoping to have that 
settled before the next release.

Look in the refman, under File List.  I've enabled the graphviz features 
of Doxygen, so you should see dependency graphs for the headers.

If you want a real scare, start with mysql++.h.  Eeek!

I did some of that, certainly, but there may be more that could be done. 
  I only did enough to break the various dependency cycles that resulted 
from rolling back the old scheme.

Are you running GCC 4 on that one, or do you have another system with 
that compiler?  (I know you have it on at least one system...)  It's 
supposed to be faster at compiling template code.  In my experience, 
it's templates that slow g++ down the most.

Doesn't hurt to do it.
