=head2 Changes in DBI 1.47 (svn rev 854),    2nd February 2005

  Fixed DBI::ProxyServer to not create pid files by default.
    References: Ubuntu Security Notice USN-70-1, CAN-2005-0077
    Thanks to Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña from the
    Debian Security Audit Project, and Jonathan Leffler.
  Fixed some tests to work with older Test::More versions.
  Fixed setting $DBI::err/errstr in DBI::PurePerl.
  Fixed potential undef warning from connect_cached().
  Fixed $DBI::lasth handling for DESTROY so lasth points to
    parent even if DESTROY called other methods.
  Fixed DBD::Proxy method calls to not alter $@.
  Fixed DBD::File problem with encoding pragma thanks to Erik Rijkers.

  Changed error handling so undef errstr doesn't cause warning.
  Changed DBI::DBD docs to use =head3/=head4 pod thanks to
    Jonathan Leffler. This may generate warnings for perl 5.6.
  Changed DBI::PurePerl to set autoflush on trace filehandle.
  Changed DBD::Proxy to treat Username as a local attribute
    so recent DBI version can be used with old DBI::ProxyServer.
  Changed driver handle caching in DBD::File.
  Added $GetInfoType{SQL_DATABASE_NAME} thanks to Steffen Goeldner.

  Updated docs to recommend some common DSN string attributes.
  Updated connect_cached() docs with issues and suggestions.
  Updated docs for NULL Value placeholders thanks to Brian Campbell.
  Updated docs for primary_key_info and primary_keys.
  Updated docs to clarify that the default fetchrow_hashref behaviour,
    of returning a ref to a new hash for each row, will not change.
  Updated err/errstr/state docs for DBD authors thanks to Steffen Goeldner.
  Updated handle/attribute docs for DBD authors thanks to Steffen Goeldner.
  Corrected and updated LongReadLen docs thanks to Bart Lateur.
  Added DBD::JDBC as a registered driver.
