Revision history for DBIx::Class
        - When adding relationships, it will throw an exception if you get the
          foreign and self parts the wrong way round in the condition
        - ResultSetColumn::func() now returns all results if called in list
          context; this makes things like func('DISTINCT') work as expected
        - Many-to-many relationships now warn if the utility methods would 
          clash
        - InflateColumn::DateTime now accepts an extra parameter of timezone
          to set timezone on the DT object (thanks Sergio Salvi)
        - Added sqlt_deploy_hook to result classes so that indexes can be 
          added.
        - Added startup checks to warn loudly if we appear to be running on 
          RedHat systems from perl-5.8.8-10 and up that have the bless/overload
          patch applied (badly) which causes 2x -> 100x performance penalty.
          (Jon Schutz)

          sources using the same table

        - unbreak back-compat for Row/ResultSet->new_result
        - Added Oracle/WhereJoins.pm for Oracle >= 8 to support

          later versions.  (I use the term better loosely.)
        - The SQL::T parser class now respects a relationship attribute of

          Class::Accessor::Grouped. Only user noticible change is to
          table_class on ResultSourceProxy::Table (i.e. table objects in
          schemas) and, resultset_class and result_class in ResultSource.
          These accessors no longer automatically require the classes when
          set.
