I've a local VM with the following DBs installed for general testing
purposes for other db-related OSS projects:

   - MS SqlServer 2005 + 2008
   - OracleXE 11g (behaves identically to ORA Enterprise in re: db-specific
   feature support)
   - MySQL 5.x

It would be easy for me to perform the dialect tests against these platforms
(and probably also easy to add PostGres, Firebird, DB2, etc. installs to the
VM as well to cover a wider array of supported dialect targets).

No point in my centralizing all of this infrastructure myself though if it
duplicates what we already have handy access to -- which dialects are
presently not consistently run as part of our test-scope(s)?  Sounds
(unsurprisingly) like we're covered on MS SQL Server, but which of the
others remain inconsistently tested and need to be exercised --?
