Toward the end, I actually got approval from other JDBC developers
before applying patches and people were still not happy. Also, this was
during feature freeze in February, not even in beta yet.
I know it was February because I just applied all my outstanding JDBC
patches since February 1, and many of those should probably have been in
7.1.X too.
So, I am not going to apply it. If someone else wants to, go ahead.
