292 Version 1.50 was a major internal refactoring of SQL::Abstract.
293 Great care has been taken to preserve the published behavior
294 documented in previous versions in the 1.* family; however,
295 some features that were previously undocumented, or behaved.
296 differently from the documentation, had to be changed in order
297 to clarify the semantics. Hence, client code that was relying
298 on some dark areas of SQL::Abstract v1.* might behave differently
