Great!

p.s. I've just added this to the CONTRIBUTING section of DBI.pm

=head2 How to create a patch using Subversion

The DBI source code is maintained using Subversion (a replacement
for CVS, see L<http://subversion.tigris.org/>). To access the source
you'll need to install a Subversion client. Then, to get the source
code, do:

  svn checkout http://svn.perl.org/modules/dbi/trunk

If it prompts for a username and password use your perl.org account
if you have one, else just 'guest' and 'guest'.

After making your changes you can generate a patch file, but before
you do, make sure your source is still upto date using:

  svn update http://svn.perl.org/modules/dbi/trunk

If you get any conflicts reported you'll need to fix them first.
Then generate the patch file using:

  svn diff > foo.patch

Read the patch file, as a sanity check, and then email it to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
