but you'll need a PAUSE account to be able to see it.
Otherwise wait an hour or so and it should appear on CPAN master
and then slave sites.
Please download, build, and test it, install it and then
test rebuilding your drivers with it. Thanks!
All feedback welcome.
Enjoy!

=head2 Changes in DBI 1.32_90, 26th February 2003
NOTE: Future versions of the DBI *will not* support perl 5.5 or earlier.
NOTE: The "old-style" connect: DBI->connect($database, $user, $pass, $driver);
: has been deprecated for several years and will now generate a warning.
: It will be removed in a later release. Please change any old connect() calls.
Added $dbh2 = $dbh1->clone to make a new connection to the database
that is identical to the original one. clone() can be called even after
the original handle has been disconnected. See the docs for more details.
Fixed merging of profile data to not sum DBIprof_FIRST_TIME values.
Fixed unescaping of newlines in DBI::ProfileData thanks to Sam Tregar.
Fixed t/40profile.t to not use Time::HiRes.
Fixed t/06attrs.t to not be locale sensitive, reported by Christian Hammers.
Fixed sgi compiler warnings, reported by Paul Blake.
Fixed Taint bug with fetchrow_hashref with help from Bradley Baetz.
Fixed $dbh->{Active} for DBD::Proxy, reported by Bob Showalter.
Fixed STORE to not clear error during nested DBI call,
thanks to Tony Bowden for the report and helpful test case.
Fixed DBI::PurePerl error clearing behaviour.
Fixed build using make -j4, reported by Jonathan Leffler.
Changed Apache::DBI hook to check for $ENV{MOD_PERL} instead of
$ENV{GATEWAY_INTERFACE} thanks to Ask Bjoern Hansen.
No longer tries to dup trace logfp when an interpreter is being cloned.
Database handles no longer inherit shared $h->err/errstr/state storage
from their drivers, so each $dbh has it's own $h->err etc. values
and is no longer affected by calls made on other dbh's.
Now when a dbh is destroyed it's err/errstr/state values are copied
up to the driver so checking $DBI::errstr still works as expected.
Documentation changes:
Documented $high_resolution_time = dbi_time() function.
Documented that bind_col() can take an atribute hash.
Clarified documentation for ParamValues attribute hash keys.
Many good DBI documentation tweaks from Jonathan Leffler,
including a major update to the DBI::DBD driver author guide.
Clarified that execute() should itself call finish() if it's
called on a statement handle that's still active.
Removed "NEW" markers on some methods and attributes and
added text to each giving the DBI version it was added in,
if it was added after DBI 1.21 (Feb 2002).
Changes of note for authors of all drivers:
Added SQL_DATA_TYPE, SQL_DATETIME_SUB, NUM_PREC_RADIX, and
INTERVAL_PRECISION fields to docs for type_info_all. There were
already in type_info(), but type_info_all() didn't specify the
index values. Please check and update your type_info_all() code.
Added DBI::DBD::GetInfo module that auto-generates your drivers
get_info support code, thanks to Steffen Goeldner and others.
Added DBI::DBD::TypeInfo module that auto-generates your drivers
type_info_all data structure, thanks to Jonathan Leffler.
Drivers should no longer pass Err, Errstr, or State to _new_dbr
or _new_dbh.
Changes of note for authors of compiled drivers:
Added dbd_db_login6 & dbd_st_finish3 prototypes thanks to Jonathan Leffler.
All dbd_*_*() functions implemented by drivers must have a
corresponding #define dbd_*_* <driver_prefix>_*_* otherwise
the driver may not work with a future release of the DBI.
Changes of note for authors of drivers which use Driver.xst:
Some new method hooks have been added are are enabled by
defining corresponding macros:
$drh->data_sources() - dbd_dr_data_sources
$dbh->do() - dbd_db_do4
The following methods won't be compiled into the driver unless
the corresponding macro has been #defined:
$drh->disconnect_all() - dbd_discon_all
=cut
