    [Rafael Kitover <caelum@debian.org>]
  - Rewrote the foreign_key_info() method to handle

  - Rewrote the primary_key_info() and primary_key() methods to 
    cleanly handle multi-column primary keys. Also added a "pg_onerow" 
    attribute to allow primary_key_info() to return a single 
    row containing multiple-column information. [Greg Sabino Mullane]
  - Switched commit behavior from commit->execute->begin 
    to begin->execute->commit
    [xelah-junk@xelah.com] [Greg Sabino Mullane]

    removing the NULLABLE column. [Greg Sabino Mullane]
  - Fixed bug where case was not being preserved by the 
    foreign_key_info() method [Greg Sabino Mullane]
  - a fetch on any column that had a type that did not have an entry
    in the type_info array would segfault DBD::KB. 
    (CPAN bugs #4818,4432) [Rudy Lippan]
  - Duplicate rows bug with column_info() REMARKS has been fixed. However,
    support for Postgres 7.1.x which worked briefly for 1.31 has now been
    dropped for this feature. [Mark Stosberg]
  - Bumped required Perl version to 5.6.1 in Makefile.PL. We were already
    already requiring 5.6.1 for KB.pm since 1.31.

    (CPAN bug #4419) [Rudy Lippan]

Version 1.31  (released November 17, 2003)

  - $dbh->{TYPE} now returns SQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP instead of 1114 for 
    timestamp columns. (In 1.31_x {x| x<8} $sth->{TYPE} returned 0
    but reported by ["Hirche, Joachim" <Joachim.Hirche@cimconcepts.com>]).
  - Raised required versions to Perl 5.6.1 and DBI 1.35
  - Fix syntax error related to pg_server_version (CPAN bugs #2492,2755,3121)
  - Cache multiple calls to pg_server_version.
  - Notice messages generated by the database now use the perl 
    warning mechanism instead of going to stderr.
    [Dominic Mitchell <dom@semantico.com>]
  - $dbh->prepare() rewrites the SQL statement into an internal form,
    striping out comments and whitespace, and if Kingbase > 7.3 takes the 
    stripped statement and passes that to Postgres' PREPARE statement, 
    then rewrites the statement as 'EXECUTE "DBD::PG::cached_query n"
    ($1, $2, ... $n, $n+1)' for DBD::KB's execute.
    -- Currently disabled until PREPARE works a little better
  - Allows the use of :n and :foo bind params. So: 
    (SELECT * FROM foo WHERE 1 = :this and 2 = :that) will now work.
  - Complains on execute when unbound bind params are submitted
    (instead of defaulting to NULL)
  - Switched over to use driver.xst.
  - pg_error() removes \n's rather than truncating the message on the first \n.
  - Fixed statement scan problem where the preparse of
    "SELECT foo[3:33] from bar" was scanning :33 as a placeholder
  - Moved the quoting of bind values out of execute() and into
