safe updaing of database records when using Berkeley DB CDS mode.
* added t/cds.t and t/pod.t
* Modified the test suite to use "-ErrFile => *STDOUT" where
possible. This will make it easier to diagnose build issues.
* -Errfile will now accept a filehandle as well as a filename
This means that -ErrFile => *STDOUT will get all extended error
messages displayed directly on screen.

when an odd number of parameters are passed to ParseParameters.
* fixed off-by-one error in my_strdup

Recno when used in CDS mode. These methods were not using
a write cursor behind the scenes.
Problem reported by Pavel Hlavnicka.
0.25 1st November 2003
* Minor update to dbinfo
* Fixed a bug in the test harnesses that is only apparent in
perl 5.8.2. Original patch courtesy of Michael Schwern.
0.24 27th September 2003
* Mentioned comp.databases.berkeley-db in README
* Builds with Berkeley DB 4.2
* The return type for db->db_fd was wrongly set at DualType -
should be int.
0.23 15th June 2003
* Fixed problem where a secondary index would use the same
compare callback as the primary key, regardless of what was
defined for the secondary index.
Problem spotted by Dave Tallman.
* Also fixed a problem with the associate callback. If the value
for the secondary key was not a string, the secondary key was
being set incorrectly. This is now fixed.
* When built with Berkeley DB 3.2 or better, all callbacks now use
the BackRef pointer instead of the global CurrentDB. This was
done partially to fix the secondary index problem, above.
* The test harness was failing under cygwin. Now fixed.
* Previous release broke TRACE. Fixed.
0.22 17th May 2003
* win32 problem with open macro fixed.

* added a note about not using a network drive when running the
test harness.
* fixed c_pget

* the dbinfo script will now indicate if the database is encrypted
* The CLEAR method is now CDB safe.
0.20 2nd September 2002
* More support for building with Berkeley DB 4.1.x
* db->get & db->pget used the wrong output macro for DBM filters
bug spotted by Aaron Ross.
* db_join didn't keep a reference to the cursors it was joining.
Spotted by Winton Davies.

* Fixed problem with abort macro in XSUB.h clashing with txn abort
method in Berkeley DB 4.x -- patch supplied by Kenneth Olwing.
* DB->set_alloc was getting called too late in BerkeleyDB.xs.
This was causing problems with ActivePerl -- problem reported
by Kenneth Olwing.
