That's a good point.  If the OCI included SQLite this patch would
never have occurred to me.  Looking back I wish that perhaps DHH could
have coordinated with Curt Hibbs, but perhaps that was impossible to
foresee at the time.

I do sympathize with other points of view here.  I also wince a bit at
having this dynamic default. I just couldn't think of anything better
and this might really bite hard for Windows users using 2.0 in the
near future.  If the core decides to wait and see before applying the
patch, that would be fine with me, too.
