This is most likely a problem with the test suite more than the database module. Different databases support various features at various levels, and the test suite likely assumes too much.

Two questions:
1) Are there differing levels of support for different databases?
Specifically, should I expect mssql to work properly in 2.4? I
understand that the mssql module was contributed, but I don't know if
it has kept up with the API changes in the 2.0 series. Do you test
all the supported databases, or only a specific subset of them, before
releasing an X.Y version?

2) Running the unittests - I follow the directions in
README.unittests, but the result is:
Ran 302 tests in 4.828s
FAILED (failures=11, errors=147)
I assume that this is not the expected result. I am on Windows XP,
using 1684 from svn.
It appears to pass (most of) the first 50 or so tests, then starts to
fail/error nearly all of them, starting at orm.mapper.EagerTest.
However, if I run only the orm.mapper.EagerTest, it passes. Any idea
what's going on? Should all of the tests pass?
