---------------------------------------

Looking back at your original post asking about  using the sed test harness 
capability, if you go that route.   I do not think adding a global pattern to 
Sed.java is a safe thing to do.  One thing I always wondered was why we   need 
to test the same metadata calls in so many tests.   If we just tested it in one 
place, you would need only one sed file for jdbc and one for odbc.  But I am 
not sure of the reasons why we test the same calls so many times.  I think I 
can safely say NSInSameJVM doesn't need it.
