Call this the "bitfield release."  Turns out that MySQL 5's BIT column is
not only different than the one in MySQL 4, it's also nearly impossible to
deal with using DBI unless you call bind_param() and pass an explicit SQL
type constant.  Anyway, long story short, bitfields were bludgeoned into
submission using a variety of techniques.

While I was in there, I had to fix the loader, which MySQL 5 also broke.
And finally, some more SQLite ORDER BY bugs were causing tests to fail.  All
in all, not a fun release, but still recommended due to the bugs that it
fixes.  New version of Rose::DB required, files up on CPAN and SF.net, you
know the drill.

Rose::DB::Object:

0.64 (01.19.2006) - John Siracusa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

    * Worked around yet more SQLite ORDER BY bugs.
    * Improved the column trigger implementation.
    * Added support for MySQL 5's brain-dead new BIT column type.  Classes
      must allow_inline_column_values(1) to use it due to the inability of
      DBD::mysql to bind BIT values correctly without explicit calls to
      DBI's bind_param() method.
    * Use alternate strategies for extracting foreign key information from
      MySQL 5 because the old way no longer works reliably.

Rose::DB:

0.61 (01.19.2006) - John Siracusa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

    * Changes to support MySQL 5's brain-dead new BIT column type.
    * Changed SQLite's bitfield representation to use strings instead
      of integers to avoid numification that strips leading zeros.
