I have JDBC2 here, and can test the compile. I am focusing on the CVS
because I have major jdbc patches back to February already applied.
There are so many fixes in CVS now, I am not sure how valuable 7.1.2
jdbc will be even with this one patch.
I certainly will not be applying any jdbc stuff to 7.1.X. I was told
not to apply stuff during beta. I am sure not going to apply anything
to a minor release.
