Someone else recently reported problems with www-sql.  I downloaded it
and took a quick look, but didn't see any obvious reason why it wouldn't
work.  I don't really have the time or interest to actually play with
it, though.  If you want to dig into this question and find out exactly
*why* it's not working, perhaps we can do something about it.
