DBD::mysql 4.008 Released

Dear Perl and MySQL Community,

I'm pleased to announce the release of DBD::mysql 4.008!

This release contains several fixes, particularly the issue where 
TAKE_IMP_DATA_VERSION being defined allowed code features to be compiled 
in that caused potential grief for anyone running DBI < 1.60x 
(segfault). I've disabled this for the time being until I find a better 
solution.

I've also decided from now on, as soon as I get a patch, or if I fix 
something, even if it is a minute change, I'm rolling out a release. 
Release early and often, right!?

The changes in this release are:

* Multi statement patch (fixes multi statement issues), thanks to Chris 
Heath!
* Disabled TAKE_IMP_DATA_VERSION because segfault with DBI < 1.607
* #29528: bind_param(..., SQL_FLOAT) ignores exponents - fixed, Thanks to
Tokuhiro Matsuno!
* Cleanups to make mysqlEmb work under Cygwin - Thanks to Chris Rodgers
<http://rodgers.org.uk/> !
* Modified and disabled tests for MySQL version < 4.1 for unsupported 
features

Thanks again to Chris Heath, Tokuhiro Matsuno, and Chris Rodgers for 
their patches as well as to everyone else who was kind enough to report 
bugs!
